Every day is event day apparently!

I know there are a lot of threads surrounding this, but this is still a problem.

I've had it on two occasions this year with events in my calendar. Both times Garmin has thought every day is event day after completing the event. Interestingly, after completing the event my watch asks twice to confirm if that activity was the event I had planned.

When it gets stuck on event day, it "mutes" your daily suggestions and suggests rest days ad infinitum. I can fix it by removing the event (not the activity) from the calendar, which is fine, but it also removes the recovery training suggestions. Which, as I've just completed a marathon, I would like to follow!

I've relayed all this to Garmin support, who haven't replied. Parhaps it will get more visibility here.

Same, here. I ran a half marathon on the 7th, it’s now the 22nd and it continues to tell me it’s “event day”. It’s getting to a point in which it’s just ridiculous, and I’m thinking of selling this piece of trash.

Go into your calendar in Garmin Connect and delete the event from there, then it'll change back to normal.

I appreciate the help. I would prefer if the company that sold me my 700 euro watch would fix a small software bug, rather than me having to use a workaround, but here we are.

Thanks.
