Can I start a training with Garmin Run Coach and use a Komoot track?

I wanted to use the navigation of Komoot but also start a training run with the Garmin coach. But it seemed to me that I could not use bith functions in parallel, so I had to decide and used only the training without the Komoot navigation.

Does anyone know how I can use my courses from Komoot and get navigation while I am training with Garmin coach?

  • I think in the komoot phone app you can send a course to Garmin, then in Garmin Connect you can send it to the watch and then you should be able to use that course in the native run activity. Disclaimer: I only used it this way on Edge explorer, but IMHO it should work

  • Thanks for your reply flocsy,

    you're right, I can start a "run" from the Komoot app on the watch and then choose to run it in Komoot or in Garmin.

    But I am currently training after a Garmin coach training's plan and wanted to start the training run and run a track that I planned with Komoot. But that does not seem to work.

  • I dont know how the coach exactly works. But for daily suggested workouts I am able to run those on a Komoot course.

    First thing is to export the course you want to run in Komoot to a .gpx file. This file van be uploaded in Garmin connect. From there you send the course to the watch.

    When i click on run activity the watch automatically suggest the workout, conform it. Then press the up button select navigation, courses and your uploaded course and press start activity.
