I received an alternative, but it's not the same. It's set up the virtual partner. You can set a pace and run against it. Not the same, but is the most similar.
And just FYI, I have the same problem with the syn. The watch don't update new trainings from the android app
Hi, yes I'd read into that option, not the same though... I went through their chat function yesterday and they ran an update on a fenix 5 plus that they had there and they said it had done the same - wiped the race activity function... and that they would try to resolve it - I got cut off from the chat though so will have to go back to the start again
I tested the Virtual Partner multiple times and I can reproduce the following undesired behavior: whenever I go off-course (wrong turn, bad gps signal, discrepancy between gps track and actual trail) and then come back on course the position of the Virtual Partner is reset to my own current position. I.e. when I was 10 minutes ahead or 10 minutes behind, now I am right with the virtual partner. Which makes this feature useless to pace myself. In fact, I had a DNF in a race because b9ased to the Virtual Partner I thought I am on time, when I reached an aid station with a cut-off, but was told that I am behind cut-off time. Has anyone observed such a behavior? I am using a fenix 6 pro.
