Garmin Coach running plans

Hi.I am trying to use Garmin Coach. I have done the benchmark Run 4 times and it doesn't download the rest of the workout schedule. Is there a reason why I am not getting the rest of the program?

  • Hi there. Garmin Coach only shows you the workouts for up to a week. Depending on how you do in these workouts, it adjusts future workouts. Do you see these workouts or none at all? In the mobile app, there's a calendar icon below the next workout icon (running icon). I see my workout schedule there. Do you use a watch that is compatible with Garmin Coach?

  • I have the Garmin Instinct so yes it is compatible.  I do the benchmark and after that it doesn't seem like it shows it records to get the rest of workout for the week.

  • So you mean that it doesn't record the benchmark run properly? Did you get feedback after the benchmark run? Something like 'good job' or so? I checked both web and mobile app and I see the benchmark run in both. Do you see the run in your daily activities as a run, just not in the coach tab? Maybe restart the watch and see what it does? If that doesn't help, contact customer service.

  • I thought this was customer service. Lol

  • I don't work for Garmin, I've just been a Garmin user since 2012. When I had issues that I couldn't fix with advice from this forum, I contacted Garmin per e-mail and they have been helpful so far. In one instance, they were even restoring a badge to me that mysteriously disappeared from my collection so even insignificant things like badges got taken care of.
