I am puzzled by the following,
I run a hill that is 24m heigh, the lowest point is effectively at 0m (sea level), on this hill I run hill repeats constantly up and down and that for several hours.
Here an example:
https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activity/1628694703
If I upload the GPX to a site powered by Google Maps the altitude profile of the route says that the altitude gain is 522,10m and the altitude loss ~523:
Which is what I assume it is when you climb 24m around 20 times.
But Garmin Connect (and other programs and apps) show a very different metric, namely 80m.
What does this figure actually mean? If it were measuring the highest point only it should be 24 and not 80. Or more importantly: Is it possible to get the real result from climbing several times up a hill with the FR220? What metric would this be? Does the Fenix 3 / 5 series support this (something like accumulated climb in barometric altitude measurements).
