Brick workout- Bike-> Run with Edge 530 and fenix 6

Hey team!

As my fitness improves I am ready to do my first brick workout starting from bike and transitioning to run. My question is this: What is the best way to set this up with and Edge 530 and fenix 6? Do I just record the whole thing on my watch and extend display? How do I transition from the Edge (bike) to fenix (run)?

I am aware of the multisport activity on my watch- that is straight forward, I just don't understand how to also use my Edge 530 as well

Thank you in advance for your help :-)

This link has a really good explanation of how to setup and use. How to: Garmin’s Semi-Secret Triathlon Display Mode (aka ‘Extended Display mode’) | DC Rainmaker

Yes, its for a triathlon, but once paired it should bounce between bike and run easily.

If it's just a casual run off the bike, I'll often just end the ride on my Edge, and then start the run on my watch.

If it's a more serious workout where I'm trying to hit intervals, etc, time my transition, or a Bike-Run-Bike-Run then I will tend to use the multisport activity and Extended Display.

You could also just record on both, and Discard rather than Save on the Edge to avoid duplicates.
