Delete Laps

It would be nice if you could delete individual laps in Garmin Connect (like you can in Garmin Training Centre) as I sometimes accidently create another lap afte running a course!;)

    I quite frequently accidentally add a lap at the end. The opion to delete a lap really would help tidy up some of my runs.
  • Oh, yes, and I would like to delete laps from the unit before uploading. Sometimes I play with it, test something here or there and I may have 2 or 3 activities of 30 -40 seconds that are not really anything. The only way to delete on the wrist unit is to delete all, keep 1 month or keep 3 months.

    Unless someone knows something I don't know - which is highly probable.

    You should be able to delete individual activities on the watch. I forget the exact sequence of buttons, but go to history, view the individual activity you want to delete, and from there you should be able to delete that activity.

    However, you can't delete an unwanted lap from the watch or from GC, which I believe is what the OP wanted. I agree that that would be a great feature.

    If someone could figure this out and let me know, I sure would appreciate it. I have gone to the unwanted activity but nothing obvious came up to suggest that I could delete and only it from the wrist unit. Of course, right now, my FR305 is dead anyway but for future reference, this would be great.

    I have figured out how to delete a lap from TC, then export the activity, then import to GC, which is a work around but it can be done.

    Could someone please explain how to Delete a "lap" from an activity??? I sometimes mess up at the end of a run, and would like to be able to remove these extra laps??? Also, if possible, edit the last lap... maybe something could be done when playing back the run ??? hit a key to add an end of lap mark??? then I culd remove the extra lap created after my actual end of lap???

    You can use this sequence to delete an unwanted lap from an activity on your device. At the select lap step, select the lap you want to delete, then you have the option to delete just that lap.

    That provides a work-around for the OP. Delete the activity from Garmin Connect, delete the unwanted lap from the activity on the device, then upload the activity again. The problem I've seen with this is that the map still shows the unwanted lap, but at least the activity data is correct.

    But this doesnt work if you have the activity only on garmin connect, if you export it to GTC it will go under course and problem is the same

    you can deleted unwanted apps from the software but not garmin connect. I have also not found a way to delete the laps from the watch as of yet. One thing i did notice is i deleted some unwanted laps from the software deleted the activity from the site re uploaded the activity and the unwanted laps where still there. In order to delete the unwanted laps it would have to be done either from the watch or the data files contained in the Ant+ agent data directory. I think this option defenitly should be added to the site.
  • On the 405 watch you can delete a lap by:
    History > Activities > (find your activity) > (find lap to delete) > press and hold reset > select Yes

    To delete a lap from Garmin Connect:
    1) upload activity to Training Center
    2) in TC, select activity, select lap, right click <delete>
    3) in GC, delete activity
    4) in TC, select activity, click File > Send "activity" to Garmin Connect...
    5) in GC refresh activity list
