Can you link MapMyRun to MFP?

    Is MapMyFitness the same thing? https://www.myfitnesspal.com/apps/show/110

    Have you ever had problems with map my run? I use it all the time for my running but sometimes the distance and time is off. I know this because my friend and I can start the app at the exact same time and run the exact same distance but we end up with different times and distance sometimes. Also at races the distance will be off from the course. I'm curious what other users have experienced

    For my half marathons, the distance on MapMyRun was always a little longer, like 13.56 instead of 13.1. I figured it is due to me weaving during the race. However, when I run the same courses, it is usually almost identical. Perhaps the GPS in phones vary a little.

    That makes sense. I thought maybe during races it may be interference with others tracking. Thanks for the feedback.
