RE: [garminforerunner50] Has anyone had to re-calibrate their Garmin 50 foot-pod?

0.96 is correct - it is calibrating DOWN the measurement from the POD
 
6.49 x 0.96 is 6.23 - good enough
 
REMEMBER.. don't calibrate on LEFT foot and then next run put POD on RIGHT foot - or vice versa
 
Also
 
Don't calibrate at top of lace holes - then install at bottom of laces next time

Did a 5 mile run tonight measured on MapMyRun ... the calibrated footpod got it absolutely spot on! Exactly 5.0 miles....
