What Is the LiveTrack Show Course Feature in the Garmin Connect App?

Show Course is a LiveTrack feature in the Garmin Connect app that allows a user to share with others their planned course.  Followers can view the user's real-time location as well as where they will be riding or running.

With the feature enabled, the viewer will see a magenta outline of the course the user will be traveling.  A blue dot will represent the user's current location and as the user completes their activity, a blue line will represent where they have been.
