larkim Oct 2023 1:40pm, 26 Oct 2023 22,454 posts	0 larkim Surprised to see that Garmin calculates VO2Max even from a walking activity. At least, it seems to have done on my 645. My last run had a VO2Max entry of 55.83 (per Runalyze) and after recording my 5m walk / scramble up Tryfan yesterday the activity showed a 55.13 figure. I don't think it's been take account of in my overall "training status" as that is still reported as 56 though.
chunkywizard Oct 2023 3:22pm, 26 Oct 2023 16,703 posts	0 chunkywizard Hi Larkim, you are only seeing that VO2Max in Runalyze, right? I'm guessing you would never see a change of VO2Max from a walk so there is no way of viewing the figure in GCM so for all intents and purposes it doesn't calculate it!
larkim Oct 2023 3:32pm, 26 Oct 2023 22,455 posts	0 larkim Yes, I'm seeing that in the VO2Max (from file) entry in Runalyze - so it is a number that my watch has calculated (i.e. its not the VO2Max entry that Runalyze calcs itself based on HR / pace data), but doesn't seem to impact the position that the watch is reporting or GC app is displaying. If I used one of the online .fit file viewing tools I would see the figure in the .fit file too. Looking back there's always a VO2Max (from file) entry against walks, and it's always different to the previous / subsequent run activity (though not usually by much).
Pale Skinny Vegan Oct 2023 10:08am, 31 Oct 2023 419 posts	0 Pale Skinny Vegan I use an Edge 800 for cycling (Pros: OS maps and good battery life) and a Forerunner 45 for running (Pros: 24/7 heart rate monitor. Cons: poor battery life when used as a GPS). I've only just found out that I can use the Forerunner 45 a HRM with the Edge 800, giving the best of both worlds, except I have to pair them by manually setting the Forerunner to 'Broadcast HR' every time. As the Forerunner 45 is recording HR anyway, is it possible to import the HR data to an Edge 800 Activity on Garmin Connect after the event? I'm not bothered about live data, I'd just like to easily look back and see what my heart rate was at a particular point on the ride.
