Heat Acclimation On Forerunner 945

Former Member over 5 years ago

So as it started getting hot in the south my 945 quickly said I was 100% acclimated to the heat. I run almost every day and average about 60 to 70 miles per week. At the end of June when it really started getting hot my heat acclimation started trending down and has continued to go down, yet it always says to trend up do more runs when it is 72 degrees or higher. Newsflash, it’s July in the south, the temperature is always above 72 degrees. Garmin I don’t think you have this heat acclimation thing figured out.

I agree to you. My heat acclimation decreases despite activities (trail running, cycling) above 25°C.

Is your weather widget on the watch still working? Mine stoped working and heat acclimatization droped.

Weather widget doesn’t work: “waiting for data”, synchronisation ok.

I don't think my weather widget has ever worked. As is was warming up here in May and early June, my heat acc. would consistently go up till it got to 100%. It stayed at 100% for a week or two, now every run I have done this week has caused it to drop. Did an 18 mile long run yesterday and it was hot outside, about 87 degree when I finished, and my heat acc. went down from 23% to 9%. I guess I will play with the weather widget to see if that helps, I just find it strange since the watch has a built in temp. sensor.

When you look at the map of an activity on the iOS app do you see the weather conditions in the bottom right corner?

See here, the issue is the weather widget: Weather Widget - Waiting for data

Yes, last activity 24°C , sun, but: heat acclimatisation - - 4% this day. And for laughing: to increase make a training outside above 22°C. Not really logic.

Yes it is there. I tried rebooting my phone and watch and repairing the Bluetooth but still no weather data showing on the widget in the watch.

Yes I saw that thread, but I do t think the weather widget has ever worked on my watch.

I had to have worked if you had 100% acclimation since the watch depends on that widget to determine local conditions to register a heat effect.
