How do I achieve the Virtual Climb badges?

Hope someone can help me out with this.

I'd like to achieve the Virtual (floor) Climb badges but am struggling to see how I actually record the activity.

I would really appreciate it if someone could give me a step by step guide? Sorry to sound so dense but I only got my watch a few weeks ago and am still working out all the functions. It's a Forerunner 630.

Thanks.

So...I select "Other" and walk up my stairs (several times), then upload and select "floor climbing". Then I manually change the number of floors climbed?

That's correct…

I'm not sure if I remember correctly, but I believe you need four activities with varying ascents to get all the badges.

Yup. Just did the 1,500 ft. version and learned that I need to do lower ones.

any idea how floors are needed to get each badge?

According to Garmin, a single floor is 10 feet. So divide the badge goal by 10 feet, add a couple of floors just to make sure, and that's it.

Perfect!

Thanks ever so much.

tmk2Did you record four different climbing activities (using Other) to get all four badges? Or can I do the "Virtual Climb - Angels Landing" by doing 1,500 feet of ascent? Thanks!
