My Apple Watch told my I run my fastest half-marathon ever, but the official race time said something else - here’s what happened.

If you've been following my ChatGPT experiments, you probably know I used OpenAI's generative AI to buy running shoes and train for running half-marathons. Fast-forward to mid-October, and I completed three half-marathons in about a month, including an official race. I wear an Apple Watch SE 2, which helps me track health and exercise parameters. Naturally, I used it to record my progress in training for the half-marathon and during the three races.

Pacers with balloons attached to their backs would help me tell how fast I was running. Therefore, I wanted to end the race between the 1:55 and 2:00 pacers. If I could beat the former, that'd be great. For over 18km, I was well ahead of the 2:00 pacers, but I wasn't getting close to the 1:55 folks. I thought I might push myself to reach them and pass them on their left.
