The beauty of reading comprehension. Try to follow, confused man:
Most of my runs are coming up longer than i was guessing when running on time.
Makes the observation that mapmyrun.com seems to make his runs longer than he originally thought.
Also, i would think that some of the tangents of going point to point would actually cut off distance.
Makes further observation that mapmyrun.com is probably not accurate by stating that the tangents would actually reduce the distance.
This post was well thought out and he gave two arguments for why mapmyrun.com is probably inaccurate. I thought this style of advocacy and argument was taught in 8th grade debate class.
Geez, instead of getting on here and writing venomous replies, why don't you try reading every now and again?
