Do segments reset the Virtual Partner on 935

I use the Virtual Partner setting when running my longer training run and hope to end up a few minutes ahead of the target virtual partner over 20 or 30km.  The 935 spontaneously offers up segments for me to run against my mates but every time that happens the distance ahead (or behind) in the Virtual Partner resets to 0:00.

Is that the expected behavior? I've turned off Segment Alerts in the Run Settings for the Run Activity tonight an I hope that helps tomorrow.

It is a pity that Segment Alerts and the Virtual Partner can't work together.  Happy running!

  • Hi willo 24,

    I'm not a runner but a cyclist. I use the edge 830 and I noticed exactly the same behaviour. I have a 48 km ride, I use to race against myself quite often. Until a few months ago I used an edge 800 for that. Then I bought an edge 830 and without enabling  segments all went well.

    I then enabled a few segments on the track and was very confused about what was happening. The time ahead (or behind) resets to zero after each segment. This makes it worthless and impossible to race an activity and segments during the same ride.

    This is not only a pity, this is really very badly implemented by garmin. They should fix this !
