      @isazi I did not stop the whole time… So I think definitely a SA error

        @mountainChris 4 min is a long time but if Strava thinks you are not moving it will cut the time. To check you can enable your activity in Strava as a Race, that eliminates any time that is cut due to not moving. If the Race setting matches SA then it is Strava doing the change not SA import.

          @Brad_Olwin thanks! Good point. It is strava. Not Suunto. Sorry Suunto!

          So interesting why strava thinks i am not moving… I did a reset of watch and did not turn on autopause. I think with autopause active Strava does not cut. Also when I use once manually pause…

            If you pause Strava respects your time.

            If you don’t it will do magic. It’s in their support specs.

            Tip: do a 1s fake pause and voila problem solved

              I hate when Strava does it’s magic…the other day I did a run and it scraped nearly seven minutes in a 1h 17 minutes run without stops… and I checked the map to try to find any issue and I couldn’t find any error on the contrary it was a really nice track on the map,…

                  Well could be but that day the thresholds weren’t working because I did nearly 15 km with nearly 370 m of positive ascent at a real pace of 5.13 min/min, I’m not a Pro but I think it is pretty decent. With Strava magic my pace would have been 4.45 min/km, If I trust strava maybe I need to start asking Suunto and Salomon for some sponsorship. 🤣 🤣 🤣

                    @cosmecosta good point. If you use QS what moving time do you get there? I have also kinda the same concept

                      With QS I get the same than with SA…And with my last two runs Strava an SA match in time and pace, I guess Strava also has its bad days 😁 .
                      The strava magic is even more hateful when you are in big mountains and with quite big climbs/uphills. There you need to mark the move as a race to have exactly the real time and pace.

                        @cosmecosta you know how to force it to not do it ?

                        Just make a very quick pause.

                          Yeah I read your previous post, the thing is that I usually do not have this problem, only from time to time…Not big deal anyway

                              ha - i did a cycle at the weekend - 6h15 in Suunto app; 1h 45 according to Strava! Now THAT is a serious discrepancy. But Suunto GPS also messed up, cutting off 15km from a 102km ride, visible on the map through skipped switchbacks etc.

                                @hermionet Sounds like you were in Endurance mode, not Performance.
