Issue with My Day widget in glance mode

Hi - I'm wondering if anyone else has this issue:

I use glances for my widgets on the 945 and have the standard Garmin 'My Day' widget loaded. 

When I record a run as an activity and open the widget, the first screen shows the list of stats for the day (activity, intensity minutes, floors climbed etc.) - you then press enter to get to the details screen for each. 

What I'm seeing is that whenever I record a run, the 'activity' entry in the list has a heading of RACE. I haven't set Race as the event type and have no clue where that heading is coming from. 

I've been trying to work with Garmin support on this but we seem to be going in circles - they don't seem to be able to talk to their developers who should know where that heading is coming from. 

What I'm asking is if anyone else has noticed this? You have to have glances switched on - it doesn’t happen if they're not - it only appears in the list that shows when you access the widget from glance mode.

Any feedback would be really helpful so I can either go back to support and tell them it's not just happening to me or accept that I've got the problem and do a factory reset!

Thanks in advance...

  • Anyone? Is there someone out there who could test this for me? I just need to know if it's unique to my watch or a bug in the activity. Thanks!

  • enkaytee, I tested this on my own watch running firmware 5.20 if you direct message me I would be happy to try and help. Alternatively to prevent you from doing a factory reset to the entire watch, you can try to reset the profile to defaults by going to run, holding the middle left button, then select run settings, then scroll to the bottom of the page and select Restore Defaults. You'll get Restore activity defaults? No/Yes, select yes, then try another activity. If you could direct message me a picture of what happens afterwards, (assuming that didn't work) I can continue to work on it for you. 

  • Thanks I've tried to reset the activity and I get the same results. I do have a renamed and edited run activity which I've called Race but that isn't the one I use on a daily basis. How do I direct message you?
