Add speed to map?

Is there a way to add a speed field to the 245 native map display (in Run or Walk App)?  I'm concerned with how fast I'm going, not just with what direction.  Seems like there's tons of room on the screen for a couple of tiny digits.

If not, can you recommend a third-party app that has a map with data on it.  Ideally, I'd like to see speed and HR on the map.

    What map display do you mean? On Garmin Connect? The watch itself doesn't support maps like the more expensive ones.

    You can already see the pace (min/km) or speed on the Garmin Connect data tabs.

    The "Map" display in the native app.  It's a built-in screen you can add to the app.  Shows nothing but your heading as a little blue triangle, a red triangular North pointer, a record of your track, and a scale bar, so no, it's not really a map, but that is what Garmin calls it.

    I assume you mean on the watch during an activity. No, it'll only show the breadcrumb trail. Higher end watches support full maps, but that view will still only show the maps, no additional data.
