Multiple profiles in activities

I am competing in a swim/run event and need to set the multi sport profile to 19 runs and 11 swims. I have managed to set 5 profiles within the activity but cannot select more. Does the Forerunner 735XT only allow 5 profiles in the activity?

    Yes, but there's an easy and elegant workaround. Set a multisport profile with just 2 sports: run and swim, and then enable repeats. This way you can handle a swimrun event with multiple transitions.

    One thing makes me wonder, though. You say 19 runs and 11 swims. In a typical swimrun there is a swim leg between each two runs, so if there are 19 run legs, there should be 18 swim legs. How does a 19/11 swimrun work?

    Thank you for your answer, I was not a aware of the repeat option in the multisport profile. I will have to check it out.

    Yes you are correct with the swim/run legs, I was including the energy stations which split the run legs up so it is 11 swims and 12 run legs in total.

    Appreciate your feedback.

    Actually, it was introduced some time ago with a firmware upgrade, specifically to allow swimrun activities. I used this feature successfuly in a swimrun event.
