Watch not calibrating indoor runs correctly

Hi I’m having an issue where when I do an indoor run on a treadmill, the distance is not properly calibrating. If I speed the tread up or down, my 1 mile time is always about the same. I tried resetting the workout data and then reset my indoor run calibration data and it’s still pretty off. Please help.

The Apple Watch will only calibrate outdoors. You can reset your calibration data but you'll need to calibrate outdoors again before it will work correctly indoors.
