Treadmill calibrated distance not sent to Strava

Did a treadmill run and did a calibration of the distance (Fenix 5X) according to the treadmill distance. Saved the data and Mobile Connect shows the new, calibrated distance but Strava show the distance before calibration?

FYI, I reached out to Garmin support and they are aware of the issue and are currently looking to address. The problem (as already stated) seems to be that they are only modifying the total distance data…

- Data From My Activity Does Not Match Between Garmin and a Third-Party Site

The Treadmill Distance vs. Calibration is not an issue that we can resolve…

Thanks for your input OnlyTwo, as useful as I'd expect.

Can I suggest that anyone who doesn't have a problem, regardless of the problem being discussed.. and irrespective of the forum they're involved with, if they don't have something constructive to add, just hold back on commenting

..if they'd be so kind :)

Edit: By the way, for anyone interested, I added a request on the Strava thread (the one asking for their help) for people to confirm watches that don't have this issue. I won't link to it here, but you should be able find it pretty easily. I realise people tend to visit these threads only when they have the problem (or to maybe antagonise) but hopefully there'll be a few helpful souls who wonder into the thread and help out.
