I'm all new to Running and thought the Garmin Coach was a nice way to get me starting. But I noticed there seems to be an issue with the work-out it creates for me on a day and how my Garmin watch implements it with its timers.
For example see below work-out: (sorry its dutch)
It states I need to Walk 2 minutes, then run 7 minutes, repeat this proces 3 times, then do a 2 minute cooldown.
But when I load it onto my 245M and I start it I get this situation:
I press start:
So it notifies me by voice and on screen that i need to walk 2 minutes and starts a 2 minute timer stating: WALK.
After 2 minutes I get a new notification, run 7 minutes (both voice and on screen) and then starts a timer for 7 minutes stating: RUN
It then notifies me to walk 2 minutes (both voice and on screen) and then starts a timer for 2 minutes stating: WALK
So far so good. But after that first cycle it all goes wrong.
After the 2 minutes of walking It notifies me to run 7 minutes (both voice and on screen) BUT starts the timer for a cooldown walk of 2 minutes also stating: WALK
After those 2 minutes I get a notification to walk 2 minutes but then the timer starts for a 7 minute run.
So for some reason the timer and program + notifications get desynced and for some reason does:
- Walk Run Walk (CD), Walk Run Walk (CD), Walk (Ends session because u had the amount work-out cycles planned)
instead of
- Walk Run, Walk, Run, Walk Run, Walk (CD)
No clue if I'm in the right Section, just wondering if anyone else has this issue and if there is something to solve this, Orr am I doing something wrong ?
Thanks in advance
