Running with weight backpack

I second this. Sometimes running with a backpack or weight vest as part of my training and my stats doesn't like that...

A setting to add weight backpack/vest to your run.

There is already one for the weight when you edit the activity in Garmin Connect Web:

Though, as written there, it won't have any impact on the metrics. For that, I recommend using the Trail Run activity profile with the VO₂max option disabled.

Thanks.. that’s a way, but we want the algorithm to take into consideration the extra weight and how it affects our bodies. That way we get a thougher run.

That already exists since a long time. The added weight increases the physical effort and metabolism, and that can be measured by the increased heart rate and respiration rate, and the decreased HRV. All of that is monitored by Garmin watches, and reflected in metrics like Training Load, Training Status, etc.
