I was trying to run follow navigation on a pre-set course transferred from the phone. When I was done and look at Garmin connect, the run was saved as "other activity". Is there a way to save that as run? (or cycling if I ride with a course)
Could you outline how you created, uploaded and used the route?
I have used several routes created on Garmin Connect Webpage and NOT the phone app. They are classified as Running, Trail Running or Mountain Biking. I set those when I created the route. I then used the Garmin Connect phone app to upload the route to my 5x. Then to use it, I opened Running, held the back button to enter settings, selected nav, selected course and do course (I think). Then I pressed the start button. Ran the course, saved it and waited to upload via bluetooth to my phone. No issues for me.
