Mileage rounding

posted 4 months ago | Report

Mileage in the Analytics page (which I find of little value -- see my posting on viewing weekly and monthly totals vs. the current analytics mode) is **rounded**. If I run 5.5 miles, it's rounded up to 6 miles. Why? We runners and triathletes are number nerds and don't like rounding. We like hard core, straight numbers. If I run 5.5 miles, it should say 5.5 miles. Please address this in a near-future update! :)

    We store all the values exactly how you enter them. In some place we round to simplify the display. You can see the exact values by visiting: http://www.dailymile.com/training/list

    Maybe it's a personal preference, but I'd rather see the exact value in the Analysis section than rounded values.

    I want to see the real number too. Also, I'm not sure the rounding works very well - I have one 3.45 mile run that rounded up to 4 miles and a 3.5 mile run that rounded down to 3 ??
