Running a planned track is not shown in activities

Today I planned a track on my PC, transferred it to my watch and started running. It worked fine and showed my "completed!" at the end.

I am a little bit confused, as the steps were counted, but the run does not show in the activities-view- what am I missing?

After working out with the watch now several times, I think I probably just did not explicitly save it.
Thank you all for the different suggestions.

Obvious question but did you save it?

Has it been uploaded to Garmin Connect?

If you connect to a PC can you see the activity in the Activity folder?

Did you check under "All activities"? If you logged it as another activity type than run it will not show under "Running". A common mistake by users is that they use the Navigate activity type while they are running courses. Don't do that. Use the Run type and start the course there.

Do you see the run in the history on the watch or here [https://connect.garmin.com/modern/activities]?

Well, I think so. Is there a an option to double check?

Yes I checked "all activities". I did another run (training) which was recorded successfully and is also listed.

Do the same things you did when you started the course and see what might have gone wrong.

To run a course you will do like this:

Press start, go to Run, press start
Press up, go to Courses or Navigation->Courses, press start
Go to the course, press start
When you see "Do course" press start again
Wait for GPS...
Press start to start the run
Do the run....
Press start/stop to stop the run
Go to Save and press start
Done!

"Course complete" is not the same as saving the activity.

It just means you have finished the prescribed route.

You do need to "Save" the run at the end by pressing the Start/Stop button (top right), then selecting the Save option.
