Annapurna circuit badge

Had anyone else noticed a problem with their Annapurna Circuit data? Mine has changed from 94 to 161 miles although the badge states 160k. I hope this is rectified as I should be half way there now.

This has now been corrected, badge and description are updated for 260k

Garmin support chat says that the correct value is 260km, 161.6 miles.

It's a four-point badge, and expeditions that are still longer (Rheinsteig, 320km; Camino de Santiago, 784km) are also four-point…

The main issue is that the challenge changed while I was part way through and the badge doesn't reflect the new distance shown. The distance or the badge needs to be updated.

Yep, same here. Agreed on both points.

If you browse the circuit and select view badge it shows a 160km badge and the description:

"4 pts - Start this expedition and hike 160 kilometers by tracking your daily steps"

If they have changed the distance of the event then the badge and associated description needs to be updated too.

Why expedition Annapurna changed quantity of km from 160 to 260 during the expedition? It is still marked as 160k. I have reached 167 and still not finished…

Finally the worst thing is that some people reached 160km before it was changed and got the badge. So, the conditions are not the same for all of us.

Same here, switched from 160 km to miles while I was in the middle of it. Should have completed it today but now have another 60 so miles to do.

Expedition shows a different distance than is listed on the challenge page. Annapurna Circuit is shown as 160K on the list of expedition challenges, but upon starting it, it's actually 161 miles. One distance or the other needs to be corrected.

Does anyone from Garmin support actually read these comments? It should an easy fix to correct the walk so that total distance, badge and description all match. I raised a support call and was told that there is a support ticket in to fix but have no idea of where that is up to.
