Feature Request - Dynamic Training activity Route/Courses

Hi,

I am currently using Edge 830 and find both Courses and Trainng Activities a great feature set, however I am looking for a solution that would allow users to combine both.

I currently use activities to train with and for example may want to execute a ride that consists of 3.5hrs total time, 10mins in both warm up & Cool down, 145mins in zone 2 &  45mins in zone 3.  I can manually do the mathematics to roughly calculate the distance I can cover and then create a route appropriately but then I either have to follow the activity steps and know the route or follow the route and know the activity steps as both can not be combined together.  Or if they can i have not found a way to do this

It would be really useful is if Garmin could use the rich data it holds against my profile and previous rides (average speed in HR/Power zones, inclination and wind speed direction) to suggest a route for the activity and then allow the use of Activity/Workout screens to monitor current training/activity step and Course/Route directions concurrently.

So the request is to be able to;

A) Load a route for a training activity

B) Garmin to dynamically create a suggested route for that activity time based around the steps within it v's past performance.

C) On the head unit, whilst activity is in flight to asses if you will reach end destination before/after total activity time and offer on screen quick click extend/reduce route distance to more accurately have you reach your destination at the desired time. 

Thanks

Matt
