Wrong Average Cadence provided at the end of a run

I’m having an issue with my S6 Apple Watch. The Average cadence reported after a run is about 50-60 off from what I see glancing in the watch throughout the run. I don’t stop or walk. So I can’t understand how my average cadence during run goes from 160 to 105 as being reported as a final average for the workout.

Nah ! I believe apple needs to do some work on this front. My running BPM music cadence is set to 180 and that’s what I usually got on my Garmin sensors as well when wearing the tri hr belt which measures extended running dynamics like cadence, vert oscillation, ratio, etc etc. the cadence was pretty bang on as I ran per the BPM music of 180.. with apple it shows 172 - 174 for an actual cadence of 180 and 165-167 for an actual cadence of 175.. I guess future updates will correct the inbuilt sensors to correctly or at least approximate to a large extend the real cadence ..
