Not reliable live tracking at start of race

The live tracking was not reliable at the start of the race until we received the first official update at the 10k mark. We were very nervous that our daughter who had trained well and was her 4th marathon was injured because she was pacing 2 minutes slower than her actual pace. Having said that.... it was a great app for the updates and for being ready to cheer her on near the finish line! I would definitely recommend the app, just know initial live tracking may not be reliable.
