I noticed that my most recent run shows up properly on the chart as 8:34 AM ... however, the title bar on my web browser displays the run as -4:34 AM.

Also, my weight seems to have reverted back to kg for some reason.

Just an fyi ... =)

Hey Vic, I fixed the title bar issue (thanks) but can you tell me what page you are seeing the weight display problem? I looked at your settings and you are set to display distance in Kilometers, so by default any weight values you see should be in kg instead of lbs.

Whoopsie.

You're absolutely right, Chris. For the longest time I've thought in terms of lbs for weight and km for distance - I just realized, they don't belong to the same measurement system!

lol... that's a good point...
Chris, maybe the distance setting setting should be called "units of measure" and have options for "Metric" or "Standard". Alternatively is be a little more flexible if we added a display setting for weight also.

As of right now there are separate settings in My Settings for distance and weight. The weight setting is new.

www.runnerplus.com/profile/settings.asp

Everyone is defaulted to a weight setting of Kilograms, so if you want to view everything in Pounds, go change your settings!

If you see an area of the site where your setting is not applied, please let me know!

Hi

I'm seeing what I think is a different time zone issue - I'm in Sydney, Australia, which is ~9 hours ahead of GMT and further ahead of the US.

When I run and upload immediately after the run, run data doesn't appear immediately on RunnerPlus. I think it might only appear when the time of the run exists in a different time zone? i.e. if I run at 6pm local time, the run will get listed and counted in my aggregate data when 6pm is reached in the US?

we are a day ahead of the states so the run will show in the charts and in challenges just not on the calendar. I have noticed that but jus figure its part and parcel of using a us site.
