  • RE: I am VERY happy with my Fenix 6x

    Same here. I'd probably be cross if I was seeing simple run routes show more than 5% out as some people are reporting, but I just don't; if it's more than 1% out it's having a bad day. I ran just short of 2,000 miles last year, loads of that was trail…

  • Does race prediction not look at the elevation gain?

    silentvoyager

    Out of curiosity, to look at the new Race Calendar feature, I've added an upcoming 50K race.

    I set the race goal at 6h 30m. However the watch predicts 4h 42m which is completely unrealistic considering about 8400 feet of elevation gain.

    Does Garmin…

    The coach guided running plans are based on garmin workouts. They create new lap markers after each workout step. Each lap marker triggers a distance correction.

    Long story short don 't use the hi vis pacer app in combination with a guided workout plan…

    My wife recently upgraded from a fenix 5S to a 7S solar sapphire.  She noticed this same behavior with open water swims immediately while swimming an ocean swim that she had done many times before.  The 5S, Strava's distance correction, and Google Maps…

    Thanks for the very considered reply! I am also a runscribe user - and have been since the very first kickstarter!

    I also use instant footpod pace for short intervals to set my pace, but adjust overall pace according to lap pace - if that makes sense…

    Did you have GLONASS enabled? Doing so made a signicant improvement in accuracy for me.


    I do indeed. Have both GPS, 1 second interval, all maps, 3D enabled now.

    Last night I rode a fairly technical trail where there was fair amounts of tree coverage…

    Dear All, I have problems with my 935. Altimeter in activity is allways too high. Distance in open water swimming allways too short (app. 700m recorded for 1000m really). Do you think it can come from the firmware ? I have 21. Do someone have infos about…

    Hi Andy!
    Of course we swim with wall pace clock and of course a coach during the main job :D
    I don't rely on the watch for times and rests during training, but having it on my wrist I look at it.
    With what it cost I would expect to have a final report…

    Hi just thought I’d add to this conversation, have had the steel bezel protector on my F6Pro Solar and found that on a recent triathlon, my 55km bike lost signal at some point and became a 40km bike. Whereas my bike computer Edge 520, had the right distance…

    I have the Vivomove style, purchased it 10 weeks ago. Love the watch but am experiencing the same connected GPS issue as above.

    Watch connects to mobile GPS but I get part or disjointed map on Garmin Connect. Distance is usually short too. I use strava…
