Starting out. Want to see route details

I have got as far as getting a little window in Garmin Connect that shows the map of my course and general information about the paddling training session. I can't get any detail. When i choose the magnifying glass I get a map centered on my location (not where i was paddling) and list of OTHER PEOPLES' courses.

Frankly I really don't care or want to see what other people are doing. On the larger map and the lists provided I cannot see my training sessions. I want to see segments and see MPH in different parts, and a larger map. I have seen other's setups that animate the progress of the course and give details of each part.

Since I cannot edit or look at any details, the average speed doesn't mean anything as a training device, since there's no way to account for stops or to look at portions and relative speed due to currents and wind. If this is all I can get, I don't see the point of it all. There must be more I can do with this.

I don't really see a tutorial on using the site, just FAQ which don't seem to address what I came here for in the first place, just a detailed map and data of the course I took today.

Thanks for any help or redirection to the appropriate site.
