Base run logged as tempo/high aerobic

Hi please can anyone tell me why all of a sudden my base runs are being logged as Tempo?

I select the suggested daily workout: base run workout of 40 mins -140 bpm/9.10 min mile and stay within the parameters all run so when I finish my average pace was 9.12 and my HR was 133bpm yet it marks it as temp high aerobic??
It didn’t used to do this. Especially if I followed the base run suggestion and stayed “in the green” all run. Any ideas? Thanks.

Can confirm that 12.23 does not fix this.

Thank you!! I knew it must be a bug. I did a crushing high aerobic workout recently that got logged as base despite many mins in my max HR zone. It’s messing everything up

right, what can I do to help fix it or are Garmin aware and working on it? Thanks again

Either way Garmin need to fix this sharpish. I feel it’s pointless even logging a workout as Garmin are just going to assign something totally random to it. All my figures are skewed already. Keeps suggesting base runs because every time I do one, perfectly, it logs it as high aerobic so thinks I’m not doing any low aerobic. Really poor from Garmin, seen bugs before but not like this

OMG I am switching off my auto update.

I will stick to 11.12.

I've seen a "seam" like this as well. The daily suggestion uses heart rate zones as you put in...

... but it seems the low/high aerobic logic uses some internal derived threshold instead.. and there' a gap between them

for me, my base run suggestion goes to basically 144 bpm (when warning kick in for 145), but once I spend "real" time over 142 it'll get classified as high aerobic

What’s weird is my base runs at zone 2 now get logged as high aerobic yet my high intensity stuff where I’m majorly in zone 4 & 5 above threshold get logged as base/low aerobic.

how can that be? I’m essentially working backwards. Easy runs get logged as high and anaerobic intervals logged as low/ base

can’t even be bothered tracking anything really as it’s all nonsense at the moment. Waste of a watch
