Ability to have recurring goals

Former Member
Former Member over 15 years ago
The ability to set up recurring goals is an absolute must. The ability to have a weekly or monthly goal that automatically starts over every week/month is extremely motivating.

For example - I'd like to set a goal of running 15 miles every week or 60 miles of biking every week. I should be able to set these to automatically happen each week - without going through the trouble of restablishing a new goal every single week.

The "goal" feature is seriously missing usability without this feature.

    Why is there no comment from Garmin on this?

    Just another reply to request this feature. Recurring goals would be very useful.

    Yes! It needs to be able to set "run a marathon" or "run a 3:30 marathon" (one event on one day) as a goal.
    I also agree that a recurring goal would be very beneficial.
    It might be nice to set an imported "training plan" as a series of goals as well! So far the integration of the Garmin training plans is very limited at best...all you can do is view it online in your calendar. They need to be either "Goals" or at least "Workouts" so you can see them on your device.

    I own three Garmin devices and recurring goals are an absolutely essential feature.
    It's embarassing that this has not been implemented.

    Can't believe that such an essential feature, that was requested over 4 years ago, has not been implemented.

    Very disappointing.

    Nothing new to add to the conversation...just a strong AGREE!

    I've ended up on this thread having just googled "Garmin Connect repeated goals" fully expecting to find the solution but I guess not. I notice this thread has been going for several years and not a single acknowledgement from Garmin. I guess we have to face up to the fact that from Garmin's point of view we've obviously paid our money already or we wouldn't be here and now we can go jump in a lake for all they care.

    Yes, I'm just somebody else who's been Googling trying to work out how to do this, only to get here and find out you can't! Come on Garmin, it really wouldn't be that difficult! What's the point of having a "Feature Requests" sub-forum and ignoring such a fundamental and easy to resolve request that been asked for regularly for the last 4 years?

    I haven't read the thread, just the title. Based on the title, I concur with this feature request. For example, I would like to setup and track a weekly goal of cycling for X hours per week. This would be an ongoing goal, I'm not going to bother setting it up manually every week.

    5 years after and still not in place...????

    come on garmin, this should not take more than 5 minutes programming...

    thanks in advance!!!
