Data Field: Dozen Run Fields

Dozen Run, Swim, Paddle and Cycle Data Fields
After others are forcing you to pay for these applications, so I decided to make a great data field(s) and then keep them free. I'm a Software engineer, sponsored runner and run coach, I combined my engineering and running knowledge to bring you these streamline applications.

I put thousands of hours of bench and field testing these simple applications. So, consider a small donation.

Install Instructions:
This Data field needs to be added to the (specific) app within your watch to view.

This is a data field not an application and needs to be added to a single data screen within an application.
a.) Goto settings,apps,run,data screen,screen 1
b.)Set Layout to 1 Field
c.) Set Field 1 to ConnectIQ Fields, DozenRun
d.) run happy!

INSTALL ISSUES:
-"!" Issue: If you receive a "!", completely uninstall, reboot and then reinstall. The Setting file changed and the automated Garmin install is not replacing the setting file.
-Download Issue: if you have the "App requires an update before install", hard reboot your watch TWICE and install again.
-TIMER Issue: If you update/install and you see the TIMER and don't see the Dozen data field.
--The data field update or install may require a restart of watch.
--Or the data field needs added to the built-in application, again.

These are becoming a Data Field Suite, where all field are similar making it easier to read while in an activity.

The Dozen fields are intended for training, the data field works fine for speed work, track or races, but readability in these conditions maybe tougher.




IMPORTANT: If you have a Question, recommendation or problem.
Please provide as much as possible (for example the following):


1.) Watch type, Watch firmware version and ConnectIQ version.
2. programmed from Garmin Connect (phone type) or Garmin Express
3.) Which data field
4.) description of issue
5.) if its a "!" error include the error log from your watch. Connect your watch to a PC using USB cable. The error log is located x:\GARMIN\APPS\LOGS. copy the listing and paste in the post.

Description for all fields
--All watch types are support for all data fields. Coded simple to keep bugs at minimum.
-Race Prediction completely configurable for any distance. Distance is entered in meters. Enter 1%-2% longer distance to adjust for normal GPS error and better race prediction.
-Cadence either from watch, footpod or crank cadence. Color coded to provide instant readability
-Heart Rate field is configurable to several methods: calculation (default), manual entered max HR, or individual zones Color coded to provide instant readability
-Pace/Speed is a rolling average to give a smooth reading configurable from 1 second to 120 seconds (Metric or statute by user setting)
-Distance is the total distance for the activity (Metric or statute by user setting)
-Timer is the actual time of the active time. Not Elapsed time.
- Battery meter uses the entire screen for reliability and acts as a divide to help focus one the upper fields.
-Avg Pace\Speed is a Garmin's provided datafield. (Metric or statute by user setting)
-Calories is the activity calories.
-Elevation based on Garmin's values. (Metric or statute by user setting)
-Time of day either in 12hr or 24 hour (based on user setting)
-(Fenix3/920)Auto background color Black or White background based on app settings
-(230/235) Configurable background color Black or White background (user configuration)
-GPS uses same indicator as iPhone for GPS signal. 5=full, 4=usable, 3=poor, 2=unused, 1= last location & 0 = no GPS
-Blue Tooth connectivity is shown as a blue "B"
-Paddle Stroke distance is a calculated by actual speed / cadence. Displayed in Meters/Feet.

  • Using the Paddle Sports+ app on a Fenix 3 HR with current firmware. I am not getting anything in the stroke cadence field, yet in the garmin row app, it works. Known bug?
  • yes, send me an error file.
    Connect your watch/device to a PC using the usb cable. the error log is located. x:\garmin\apps\log. send using the Contact Developer link, the link is found on the App Store page.


    Hello. This particular directory of the \log is always empty. I didnt clear anything. How do I turn it on so it can log bugs? Thanks.
  • Hello together,

    I search for an Datafielt/App for swimming which has the following features:

    - distance calculated by pool length / compass
    - use internal HR sensor of my Fenix5x (I've tested it in run mode, and when the fenix is fitted tight enough the HR data is pretty good...)

    Now my Idea was to use the Dozen Swim in a Run/Bike app to have HR activated and also the distance calculation for swimming, has anybody tried it?

    Do the dozen swim use the data provided by the device itself for distance; swimstyle etc. or has it its own algorithm?

    Thx,
    Mirko
  • Hi,

    I have a slightly odd issue: in the Garmin Connect Mobile app on iOS (but not Garmin Connect on the web) I have German labels for some of the data presented by DozenRun.

    Total Steps in the activity details and Momentary Energy Expenditure and Relative Running Economy in the graphs are shown in German. This has only occurred since 25th April.

    How can I diagnose the issue and (help you) fix it?

    Thanks.
  • MirkoW, I have not tried that configuration but I'm guessing it will work. as for the distance, DozenSwim uses the internal distance, except for the laps counts is based from distance.
  • H4RMONIC, I added German support with help from another German Speaking Person. if there is a better translation, contact me directly. I can be reach on the app page, Contact Developer link.

    Contact me directly, I can provide a side load option that will log all errors.

    I’ve evidently not been sufficently explicit. My phone, Garmin Connect Mobile app and Fenix 5 are all set to English (I don’t speak German). To reiterate, this has only been the case since 25th April. Prior to this all labels were correctly in English.

    Screenshots of the issue are below.

    Please let me know how I can troubleshoot.

    Thanks.

  • Afternoon, how do I set the auto lap function on the Dozen Run app as I want my watch to remind me every time I've hit a mile

    Thanks
  • Is there a possibility to disable only the new Stryd Power graph and average power but keep Relative Running Economy graph and Momentary Energy Expenditure graph? I do not have a Stryd device and therefore GC shows me a Power graph with "-1" and average power "-1". I use a Running Dynamics Pod with the Combo Running Power Data Field in combination with Dozen Run which worked great together in the past.

    Thank you.
