Custom Personal Records?

Former Member

Hello All,

Is it possible to create Personal Records for distances shorter than 1 mile? For example, if I'm doing 400M or 800M intervals, I'd love to see my fastest time for those distances...

Thanks!
  • You could use segments -- but they've been down for months

    Is there anybody who knows the answer to this? I've checked all the forum posts, but can't seem to find anything...


    The best way would to establish a segment. This feature has been down for several months, however. (see the posting on segments on this Garmin Connect board.)

    Unfortunately, Garmin has been very unresponsive in reestablishing this feature.
  • Not much help...

    There is a 1km distance PR (not shown on some watches it appears) - but no there is no way to have custom ones. Same goes for biking - where there is only one (40k) distance/time based PR. oh well.

    I don't think that's what the OP meant. If I want to track my own personal best time for, say, 17 miles, it's not necessarily a specific 17 miles I'm interested in.

    Like the OP I'd love to set a few personal records to track - best century (metric or imperial), for instance.
  • adding custom personal records (based on distance or time)

    I totally agree! It would be very cool if we can add custom distances to track records, or the other way around like the longest distance during a Coopertest (12minute run)

  • So. People have been calling for this obvious addition for years and years.. And nothing has been done? 

  • Come on Garmin - this is obvious - Garmin Connect needs an overhaul from a user perspective. How about you get some people that use Garmin watches into a room and ask them what functionality they want?
