Starting this week (Dec 2 specifically), there has been an inconsistency with the start time of runs that are automatically uploaded from the FR620 to Garmin Connect. My watch is set to automatically set time from GPS and the time on my watch is correct. My time zone in GC is set to the correct zone (US Eastern) as well. When I upload (usually via WiFi), the start time for my run is set to 5 hours earlier than the actual start time on GC. So, today I started a run at 10:05AM, GC had my start time as 5:05AM. Interestingly, I have automatic sync set up with Strava from GC and the start time was correct on Strava. I also use Tapiirik to sync GC with RunKeeper and, funny thing, the start time for the synced run was the incorrect 5:05AM but the end time was the correct 11:15AM, so that RunKeeper treated my run duration as 6 hrs 10 min (instead of 1 hr 10 min). When I look at the activities on my watch, the run shows the correct start time of 10:05AM. I can manually correct the start time on GC. Anyone else see this issue or anything like it?
I heard back from Garmin yesterday. This is a known issue with iOS devices. They ask that we EDIT our runs on the computer, i.e. Garmin Connect website, for the time being. Editing runs via your iOS device using the app will result in start time issues.

Confirmed. I always rename my runs and have done it on my iPhone up until now and my start time always ends up being off by 7 hours (I'm in the Mountain Time Zone). I changed it on my PC today and it reported the correct time.
