Create Courses and Custom Workouts - ?

The owner's manual says courses and custom workouts can be created in Garmin Connect but I don't see this feature in GC nor is there any "help" on the subject. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
  • Yes, I noticed that too, as noted here.

    I've noticed this in the manual

    Use Garmin connect to create courses and course points and transfer them to your Forerunner.

    Hopefully this will be something that will be added in GC's next update, since it is not available yet.
    .

    Also, there is no mention of Training Center in the manual. Maybe to come in a future update? Don't know. As for creating courses, I use BikeRouteToaster.

    While there is no mention of Training Center in the 310xt manual, you can create custom workouts and courses in TC. The courses will be created from existing activities or you can use the web site SEILOGRAMP references.

    Agree - The ability to create and edit workouts online is essential

    I thought I'd seen some word from Garmin earlier in 2009 to the effect that this feature was in plan. I had a boatload of problems running GTC on Vista for my 705, and in the end was effectively locked out of using it for this purpose. Last spring, after my third round of GTC uninstall/reinstall, I stopped using it.

    Since then I've migrated to Ubuntu Linux and with the winter indoor training season ramping up, the online workout creation/download functionality is something I'd really appreciate seeing. I have a hard enough time doing the workouts, never mind remembering what they are! :)

    Im +1 for this feature. Training center is a joke to software developers (digital designers even more so). Ant it is really sad that a product thats been in the shops for almost a year still doesn't do all the things that the manual says it should be able to. That there are bugs are bad enough really...

    Garmin Connect has potential! Please get on with it! :-)

    Setting up courses in Garmin Connect & Training Center

    For setting up courses in Garmin Connect and Garmin Training Center, have a look at the thread https://forums.garmin.com/showthread.php?t=3554

    In the Help function of Garmin Connect, you can find that Custom Workouts are currently not available in Garmin Connect.
    In Garmin Training Center you can create Advanced Workouts.

    Create Course without running it first

    I searched for several hours to find a way to create a course in my Forerunner 305 without having run the course before (no history to use).

    I ended up finding a solution and created a blog post to show how I was able to do it.

    If anyone else finds an easier way to do this I would love to know how.
