Until recently I had always paid an attention in GC or in GCM to select the real course type. So when I knew I would go for a ride, a run or a hike, I opted for cycling, run and hiking as course types of the courses in question. I even tried to forecast whether I would use run or trail run app in case of running activities following a course.
Yesterday I drew some courses knowing that these courses were too long to run along. So it can happen that I would walk/hike more than run.
I wondered whether there is any relevance of the course type apart from the fact that if you use course type you can use it as a filter when searching. So is there any other effects to courses being navigated by a Fenix watch?
Just to make it clear: I tested some, I created Course A, B, and C, and to them I assigned the types of run, trail run, hiking, respectively, and all of the three courses were visible on my watch, independently from which app type I used, run, trail run, walk, hike.
So course type has no efffects on which courses are offered when starting a sports app.
