Watch Face Mileage Goal

3108906
over 1 year ago

On the default watch face, the top shows a weekly mileage goal (and your current weekly mileage total). Is the goal a generic number, a number that fluctuates with average weekly mileage, or is there a way to set a default mileage goal for the week?

I can’t seem to find an answer or how to change the number.

    My goal just changed from 20 to 30 today on its own. So there must be an auto calculation happening.

    Not sure about what I'm going to say as I don't own a 255, but on my Venu 2 the goal is based on step count and that goal can be variable or fixed. I'm a developer of watch faces and I can transform that goal to distance (in miles or kilometers) based on the step length, so I imagine that Garmin is doing the same here on the default watch face. 

    Have a look at the step goal (on the watch or on Garmin Connect), so you can define a fixed number of steps (instead of variable) and that will (very likely) be converted to a distance goal.

    My FR255 also is showing an arbitrary mileage goal for that widget. I’m certain mine is only taking into consideration my running activity mileage, not steps or step goals. I do have a yearly mileage goal setup in Garmin Connect but even at that, my  weekly mileage would/should be much higher. I also thought it was the workouts in my calendar but those this week add up to less than what my watch says my goal is. I hope Garmin maybe has an explanation.
