I run at the gym at work during lunch. I use a foot pod and upload the runs to Garmin and Strava. I recently got the bright idea to make these Zwift runs. So I bought the CABLE device to convert the Ant + signal for my foot pod and wrist based heart rate monitor to Bluetooth so I could use the Zwift app on my iPhone.

Everything worked perfectly. But while I run I occasionally switch over to my company email to see if I’m getting any important email. But I keep running on the treadmill. When I switch back to Zwift my avatar is standing on the side of the road and the running I did while not having the Zwift app showing isn’t recorded.

Is there anyway around this? I like the idea of using Zwift on the treadmill but if I can’t also check my email it might be a deal breaker.
