Forerunner 45 does not show distance when running and will not upload the run

Hello, on my last two runs  I can see PACE and Elapsed time displaced, but distance remains at 0:00.   It does not increase throughout the whole run.  Also the watch does takes a long time to save the run (15 seconds) and then it does not uploads anything to Garmin Connect or Strava.     I have the latest software and have restarted the watch several times.   Any idea please.  I can't get to talk to Garmin support and can't find a chat line for them.

thanks,

Richard     

  • Hey! I've had this problem multiple times and again today. Try deleting all history on your watch. If you look at your steps in Garmin Connect, it likely shows as a "Move IQ Event" because it resembles a regular activity you do. This happens to me about once a week; my watch doesn't seem to be able to handle more than 4 hours of activity before it starts acting up.

    Hi there. thanks for your reply.  I got it sorted in the end by resetting the GPS and then doing a full reset on the watch.  I lost all history of course and had to set up my changes again, but it works fine now.
