Yep. That's how I do it (usually accidentally, when I'm following a course and find the VP speeding away from me as I've not turned it off)

This is the link to the workaround and some description of why "race an activity" is not the route to use if you want to "race an activity" :-)

Morning. Noticed my 235 suddenly has a blank screen - luckily no race today! It's not even 3 years old yet. Tried plugging it in with no luck. Hoping that will return to normal sometime soon. Meanwhile charging up my old FR10 as hoping to go for longish, (for me anyway) training run soon.

Thanks Bowman. Seems to have come back of its own accord. Clock is showing 11:32 yesterday though. Relieved that it is working again.

Just been putting a new route on my fenix (6s pro)

It was loaded on my laptop as ‘Roding Around Marathon’ but now I’ve got it in connect it’s ‘untitled’ I just can’t see a way to edit the title!

Aha, so managed to edit the title on my phone! Maybe that’s the only way?

jelly - in GC on a laptop, then go to Training -> Courses, click on one you want, in the very bottom right there's 3 dots, click on them and choose Edit, then beside the Course title there's a pencil symbol for Edit

A bit convoluted !!

Can do it on watch....

Pick an activity, and when it give you the 'pre-start' menu > courses > select course to rename > scroll to 'name' > Start button > edit name
