How Do I Manage My Personal Records in Garmin Connect?
Personal records provide a convenient way to track your fitness milestones. The Garmin Connect™ platform measures your records for steps, running, cycling and a few other activity types. You can choose if you want to share your personal records with others in your privacy settings. For details on how to customize your privacy settings see, Adjusting Privacy Settings in Garmin Connect.
Receiving a Personal Record
Each time that you upload data from your Garmin device or create an activity that surpasses one of your previous personal records, that achievement will be noted in your Garmin Connect account.
If a new personal record is detected, you will be presented with an option to accept or reject the activity as a PR. You can also edit, select, or delete personal records in your Garmin Connect account. For steps on how to do this, see below.
NOTE: If you have not accepted a PR in Garmin Connect or if the particular PR is hidden, your device will continue to notify you of new PRs until one is accepted. To resolve this, you would need to make the PR visible and either accept or reject the automatically detected PR activity. If you know of a PR activity, you can also assign it manually. Once you have accepted or assigned the PR, that information syncs to your device so it can accurately notify you when a new PR has been achieved.
Receiving a Personal Record From a New Garmin Watch:
If you add a new watch to an existing Garmin Connect account, it is possible for you to receive Personal Records on the new watch that do not align with the personal records listed in your Garmin Connect account. If this occurs, you will need to manually assign the PR's in your Garmin Connect account in order to update your records.
