Walk the Walk Badge not working

Former Member
Former Member over 4 years ago

I've got the Walk the Walk 1 badge, but for some reason I haven't received the Walk the Walk 2/3, and I've recorded 52 walks since the 30th of April. Any idea why this would happen?

Thanks!

    The badges were introduced yesterday, so you may need to edit and save all  non-counted Walk activitites between April 28 and yesterday to have them counted.

    I edited a few and it seemed to work! They both came through, didn't edit them all though! weird.

    Thanks!

    I have a similar query. I`ve recorded at least 50 walks since April 28th but on my Goals target for the month I classify them as "Casual Walking" and not just "Walking". Yesterday I got the WTW 2 and 3 badges but in theory I should have received these some time ago as they were completed after April 28th?
    Why is it only picking up 25 of them so far as Casual Walking must be the trigger for the award ?

    I believe they were only introduced a short while ago, which is why they're only coming through now? If you've got the 2 and 3 the next one is the 4 which is 100 activities.

    I got the Walk The Walk badges 1-4 in the normal way, but have been waiting a while now to get the Walk The Walk 5 badge. I got Walk The Walk 4 (100 walking activities) on 19th September and have done considerably more than 100 walking activities since then, but no Walk The Walk 5 badge. I am wondering if there is a minimum distance, because some of my walks are quite short, such as 600m to the bus stop and 800m to the train station. If so, that would explain why not all of my walks have counted. Does anyone know for sure?

    There is no minimum walking distance. It is just the number of activities with the Walking type that counts. Note that manually added activities doesn't count and hiking is not counted. Only walking and the two sub types casual and speed walking.

    Easiest way to check the current count is to use the Progress summary report: https://connect.garmin.com/modern/progress-summary

    Select custom dates from 2020-04-28 to today's date and the activity type "Walking" and you will see the count.

    I had 215, which should have been enough. However, maybe we prodded something in the ether by talking about it, because I was awarded it a few hours later Wink
