I do not work. Always shows me several seconds or even a negative value.
How to plugg this App on my Ambit please?
You can find instruction from faq: http://www.movescount.com/faq#Suunto Apps
This "App" is to complicated, 42.195 * AVG_SPD is tho same result!
This takes into account if you have done very fast the first 30km.. and then you start to slow down. More intelligence!
yeah, this calculates what you've already done so that you can look down and see what your time should be at any given point - it tracks your performance up to that point and knows where you stand in the race.
No, it doesn't, because AVG_SPD is exactly DISTANCE/DURATION. To get a better result there should be used also SPEED, LAP_SPEED and/or LAP_SPD_PREV. There is an other App doing it a little bit better.
I also think it is better to use the speed that you had for the last and current lap since this actual takes in to account how fast your going at the moment and faster detects if you are starting to slow down. Lets says you ran 30 km too fast and you are starting to slow down. This app wont show this change immediatley since your average speed wont change much until you have ran a couple of slow km. By replacing AVG_SPEED with (0,5*PREV_LAP_SPEED) (0.5*LAP_SPEED) you can accomplish this
At least for me the question normally is this: "Is it enough that I can keep my current pace for the rest of race?" It's not possible to change history, so I claim that only distance left and current lap pace are relevant variables. There is no reason to look back and calculate anything based on previous lap(s). If you agree, try this one: http://www.movescount.com/apps/app1640-Responsive_Marathon_Time_Forecast
I would recommend you to try mine. I take in account speed reduction of 6% if distance doubles. I had to use polynomial function to approximate unavailable power fonction in appl. Test it and let me know what you think! http://www.movescount.com/apps/app6623-Marathon_time_estimation
