Can't see workout when choosing Treadmill

I made a kilometer repeat workout and I can see it under run / workouts as always. However if I choose treadmill instead it's not there :-/

All I can see under treadmill / workouts is:

Daily suggestions

A square with an arrow and a text "Build in garmin connect"

and not the workout

Any suggestions to how I can make it visible, so that I can do the workout on treadmill?

This is a now issue with the current firmware . Many threads on it including acknowledgement by Garmin that it is being worked on.

There was a recent fix rolled out to the 255 but not the 265 , 955 and 965 as yet it seems

While you're waiting for a fix, you can use the built-in Workouts app/activity as a workaround.

It will allow you to choose any of your workouts, then it will prompt you to select the activity of your choice (including Treadmill, if you've selected a running workout)

Sorry I wasn’t clear — I mean use the Workouts activity on your watch to select the workout of your choice — it will then prompt you to choose an activity, at which point you can select Treadmill. Yes, Workouts does have an option to “Build in Garmin Connect” — if you select it, the watch will prompt you “Open Garmin Connect on your phone to build a workout”. Don’t use that option.

Detailed instructions:

- From the watchface: Press START

- Scroll down to Workouts

- Press START to open Workouts

- You will be presented with a list of workout categories such as: My Workouts, Run, Bike. “My Workouts” contains all workouts, “Run” contains run workouts, “Bike” contains bike workouts. Select My Workouts or Run and press START

- Choose your (running) workout from the list

- The watch will now prompt you to select an activity — at this point you will be presented with a list of all running-related activities, including Treadmill. Select the activity of your choice (e.g. Treadmill) and press START

Oh wow :-)

Had no idea I could do that. That's exactly what I need until a fix. Thanks a million :-)
