[17.26] Bug? Run recorded as multisport

Hi everyone, I'm a relatively new Forerunner 965 owner here with a question or possibly identified bug

Yesterday I was going for a run and planned on running about 4 miles. Briefly after starting the run, the run activity unknown to me converted to a multi sport activity. Upon pressing the start/stop button (which normally pauses or resumes) a brand new leg was added to the run which completely restarted all stats other than total time.

Also note that I am 100% sure I selected run. More info on that below.

Anyone experienced anything like this?

— More info below if interested. —

I have used the run profile numerous times since getting the 965 and as recently as this past Saturday, to which it was flawless and the start/stop functioned as expected. 

Today prior to starting the run, I selected run and the watch would go to the start trail run screen. I should have rebooted then and there. After completely going back to watch face and trying again the run worked. 

However, upon clicking the start/stop an entire new multiport leg was added and the metrics completely restarted. This was a huge inconvenience. 

Upon finishing I had 5 legs posted to Strava for a 4.12 mile run. Note that it was .12 because I had to guesstimate where 4 actually ended and wanted to be sure I go the mileage. 

This is the second time it’s happened. The other time was back in November and it was super annoying, but I thought maybe it was my fault. Today I didn’t do anything (that I know of) out of the ordinary compared to the many other runs which were flawless.

Any help and ideas are appreciated. Thanks so much!
