I haven't reviewed the Strava data, which I still hope is the Suunto data. I looked at yesterday's Suunto data in the Suunto app and it was fairly clear where the stops were, with pace plotted against time.
Question is whether we will get the raw gpx data file from the new tracking device as we were getting it from the previous trackers (or even in addition to the previous trackers!).
...and goes without saying, it would have been great to get HR, alongside cadence, in the Suunto data, but Mimi said that it was too uncomfortable.

For those asking after Mimi's intended route, so as to go out and join her, you can find seemingly that here: https://www.plotaroute.com/route/348248

Morning! We appear to have a guy following us who seems very interested in my progress! Rather creepy but would prefer they came and said hello 🇺🇸

So boots are on the ground! Why is that "creepy"? Absolutely no witnesses have seen her in over three weeks, and this, along with live tracking, is a big part of proving a record. So why is she so surprised that now she fixes the tracker issue people will come and watch her? FINALLY we can see properly where she actually is.
Its standard that independent people rock up and watch these people. They don't have to actually run with her or announce they are there.

I think you're over analysing the wording. She's ALWAYS said she welcomes people joining her, and not introducing yourself if you're doing so IS rather weird.
For those of you that dont know, Strava only counts moving time not elapsed time.
So... 31.7 miles with moving time of 6:51:59 at pace 12:59mm and 4.6mph
If you also look at the strava log it shows elapsed time of 7:29:03, which is 14:11mm or 4.2mph for the 31.7 miles.
So when you look at the whole picture, strava and garmin are showing the same thing within a VERY small margin.
You have to switch Strava to show your run as a race for it to correctly show elapsed time/distance.
Maybe she meant following online? It's a little odd to encourage people to come out and then call them creepy for doing so. There must be more to the story.
Is this on her facebook? Link please? It probably wasn't Mimi that wrote it either, she has plenty of more important things to do and a full staff.
The Garmin data from last night and this morning are all messed up due to the car trips and letting the timer run last night. From what I can tell she is looking strong this morning.

Overanalysing and jumping to strange conclusions doesn't often happen here, does it?

Thanks for the tip about seeing the total elapsed time on Strava. It's a little early to draw conclusions that the Garmin and Strava data match closely since we only have two completed Garmin runs (and one in progress). Of those three, two have already been tainted by car trips and allowing the timer to run after stopping. I'm not expecting it to get any better. At least we can see where she is and get an idea of how she's doing. That's enough for me but maybe not for others.

It's on the cryptically titled page 'Run With Mimi':
http://www.mimirunsusa.com/run-with-mimi/And before anyone says so, yes, it could be argued that letting them know first, as per that page, is suspicious, but still the offer is there.

No, not that, the link to her post where she says she's being followed.

Thank you.
Whoever that was does sound like a creep, and he has been arrested per Tim Anderson.

He's no creep, he was simply following her running, just as she INVITED.
Her husband mentioned the cops, and next thing he's been arrested.
Nice work husband - get the very first person to witness this farce arrested!
Not hard to figure out who called the police

Just wanted to post that too.
However wants to have a look at the runners don't do it like this guy.
Here is the description of Tim Anderson:
"Driving very slowly behind the girls - taking video on his mobile while he moves, not aware of traffic building up behind him - speeding off slowing down pulling off onto the verge ( no hard shoulder) an absolute idiot. Licence plate 447 DIF. If you know the guy you should tell him to introduce himself and play safe. For the record we want as many of you as you like to turn up but if you cannot observe basic safety rules we will contact the police."

I think there are ways to witness a runner without endanger yourself and others.

That license plate is quite close to being a dodgy-reading one, which sounds apt in the circumstances, as he does appear to be a loon. Something similar to a rifle our gun-toting US cousins seem to like, and another word ending in "E".
