Virtual Partner : Slower and faster setup in race

what about race your own activity which will be lower than 9? Or you always have different route?

Yes. The race is mountain ultra trail with very slow mountain ascent. The distance is not important on this type of very long activity with a lot of vertical drop. The most important thing is to be able to easily adjust the virtual partner at a pace that suits us. It is often below 10Min / kms when there is a drop.

This was possible on the 310XT why not on the Fenix ​​5?This was possible on the 310XT why not on the Fenix ​​5?

I mean if you or someone else did the same route/race in the past, you can use function race previous activity where the pace will be yours real one, lower than 10. details here:

Yes you are right.
However for new activities this is not possible.
Do you think that this functionality could be modified by the support?
A fenix does not always take the same trace ...

On the other hand, do you know a way to more easily change the pace of the virtual partner? On the Garmin 310XT, from the virtual partner screen, all you had to do was press the "down" key to change its pace. On the fenix it is much more difficult to perform operations while running ...

propose it as request for feature, but I doubt they will implement that to 3 years old model

Sorry, where is Garmin request for feature ?

I did not remember, but here it is:
