Forerunner 305 user. I upload/Sync direct from my watch/device and yet the Personal Records does not update with any new PB's. For example today I 'clocked in' a PB for 10km but the Personal Records section still shows my old PB?
PRs don't always update - not sure why - how long does the activity show up as - it has to be within a certain margin of the distance to register. You can manually mark the activity as a PR from the activities page if that helps :)
Thanks for the input. I have had to manually add my PB's. This is not really a problem but I would love the 'PR' to recognise a PB distance in a run that does not match the distance. Lets say I run a quick (I am getting old so my quick may not be as fast as a Cheetah) 10km but continue another 2km to warm down. The software should be able to pull out the quick 10km as a PB. Or lets say I run a slow 3Km, then a fast 1km and then a slower 6km, I would want the software to recognise the 1km PB... There must be a clever programmer that could suck this info out of the data supplied by Garmin GPS devices? I also use another www where I upload my runs and they can do this. Anyway its just a little rant. I have had my Forerunner for nearly 10 years and it still works a treat.
That's a tricky one - what you are describing is more like segments on Strava. The problem that you have is do you want a 1KM downhill stretch to record as a PR for 1KM - I have a number of well sub 4 minute 1K's as part of a longer run but the best pace I can run on the flat is over 20 Minutes for 5K (I too am getting old so not very quick :( ) . Have you looked at how segments work in modern - I haven't really investigated but this might give something of what you want?
