GPS track stopped recording mid activity

Yesterday during a 15k run the GPS track stopped recording at around 10k. I had pace,HR, elevation data gait data (steps per min) in real time and later on as well, only after uploading i couldn't see map data plotted after around 10k into my run. I didn't pause the watch at that point, nor did i get any calls/ messages or anything other specific that i could pinpoint this to.

has anyone else had this problem before? thanks, Daniel

This keeps happening to me and my SO every now and then. Both of us have the Vivoctive 3 Music. I just checked and out of my last 75 runs 5 had this problem. You can tell from the plot of the pace that it gets a lot smoother after the GPS stops showing on the map. My guess is that the watch resorts to calculating the pace from the steps measured (and maybe extrapolates from the prior data?). Pace and distance mostly seems accurate while I am running. I just notice the failure when I am at home and see the incomplete track marked on the map.

I wish the watch would tell me it lost the signal. No problem pausing the run for a few seconds to catch the signal again really.

I was nearing the end of my run today and I looked down at my watch and it had my heart rate displayed. I could not find my distance tracking. It was a very frustrating way to end my run and I had no idea what km Mark I was at.
