When displayed in Google Earth, 9.46 miles.

When displayed in GaiaGPS, 9.54 miles.

When displayed/calculated in Workout-tracker, 28.35 miles.

GPX attached in zip:

I think that's because your data has some severe drift in elevation, like this one:

            <trkpt lat="33.79196548461914" lon="-116.72899627685547">
                <ele>2034.0</ele>
                <time>2019-12-15T23:18:01Z</time>
            </trkpt>
            <trkpt lat="33.79188537597656" lon="-116.72905731201172">
                <ele>2519.0</ele>
                <time>2019-12-15T23:18:10Z</time>
            </trkpt>
            <trkpt lat="33.791831970214844" lon="-116.72908782958984">
                <ele>2158.0</ele>
                <time>2019-12-15T23:18:16Z</time>
            </trkpt>
            <trkpt lat="33.791744232177734" lon="-116.7291259765625">
                <ele>2076.0</ele>

            </trkpt>

In 10 secs, you have climbed up 500m! And workout-tracker calculates 3d length. That is to say, it takes elevation into consideration. That's why the total distance is 3x longer.

@alternativesurfer could you take a look with the 2D addition?

[alternativesurfer]

Looks like the 2D came up perfect, thank you so much!
is there a way for us to be able to choose 2D vs 3D on each workout for what gets calculated on the Statistics page?

most of the 3d calculations are spot on for me, but every now and then I would need to choose the 2D.
