Vo2max - Incorrect Current Value

My current Vo2max is 48 (from a run this morning), yet the widget on the main Garmin Connect page shows a current value of 45 (several weeks old). It's not a real problem because the correct value shows up if I look at the Vo2max report and select any time frame other than current. However, even on the report page, the current value shows as 45.

Is there are way to fix this?

Thanks!
  • Suggest recheck tomorrow. It may not have updated fully yet.
  • The 45 value is actually several readings old. My last few readings are:

    NOV 8 - 45
    NOV 10 - 46
    NOV 11 - 46
    NOV 13 - 47
    NOV 15 - 47
    NOV 18 - 48

    Seems like it should have updated by now. As mentioned before, I get the correct readings from the reports (as long as the time frame is not "current"). I've been slowly getting back in shape (after years of not running), and my Vo2max hovered around 45 for a few weeks before starting to improve again. Oddly enough, 45 was the final reading for the month of October. I wonder if the widget is using the last value from the previous month?
  • MORE INFO:

    Apparently the "current' Vo2max value in both the widget and the reports comes from the Personal Information page and must be manually entered. The "45" value I keep seeing must have been manually entered by me at some point weeks ago.

    It would be nice if this would update automatically with the latest Vo2max reading rather than forcing a manual update. The information obviously exists because a Vo2max report for any time frame other than "current" shows the correct values.

    I found that the value cannot be manually updated, it will reset when the page reload! So current is not current!

    I also have problems with the VO2max value in GC and posted this on the FR620 forum:
    I've noticed recently that my VO2max is not updated anymore in the report section of GC. Allthough I always wear my HRM and have done several activities in the last week, when I look at the VO2max section in reports I see a flat line with value 0 (also on days I did run). One other thing is that the VO2max value in my 620 is 46, but in GC the current VO2max is 45.
    I assume that for every run (activity) I do I should see the VO2max value back in GC on that specific date in the reports section when I select the 7 day option.
