Cardio fitness score.

Did fitbit recently change how the cardio fitness score is calculated? I noticed my score dropped 2 points today. I was 1 point away from moving past average, and looking forward to hitting the next level.
If anything I have been more active lately, I increased my running training.
I actually ran my longest distance yesterday. I also went running tonight, and it hasn't went back up.

    I just got my Charge 2 a week ago, but from my understanding, the Cardio Fitness Score is based on several factors including resting heart rate. Is it possible that your resting heart rate has been a bit higher over the past few days causing the score to decrease? I've noticed this inverse correlation between my RHR and Cardio Fitness Score, but I may be completely off base.

    Also included is the frequency and duration of workouts.
