Also really interested if this is possible. Also always look like Kipchoge after a treadmill run.

I’m assuming you don’t use a foot pod on the treadmill. I’ve been seeing some folks Strava runs on the treadmill just like you describe. I would just suggest getting a foot pod for the treadmill so you never have to worry about it again. It will be a lot more accurate at pace/distance (assuming you calibrate it) than a stand-alone watch will ever be.

Actually I have a foot pod and was going to Zwift run

I have a Zwift foot pod. However on an iPhone I can’t see anything because:old

Thats my final solution if Garmin has none

I imagine Garmin would resist a solution because it would involve admitting they suck for treadmill

I'm not aware of any way to exclude sync by workout type.

Yes, get a footpod. Wrist mounted accelerometer (watch) will NEVER be accurate. It's easy to fool. I can change my pace simply by changing the way I swing my arms. More side to side... More amplitude... More forward... More rearward... Etc. Every little change will cause it to read a different pace.

Its not really garmin's fault.... It's just bad data into an algorithm that has no hope, except to be sorta close at best.

BTW, I've heard nothing good about the milestone / zwift pod. Get a garmin footpod.

Also, treadmills are notoriously in accurate. So, expect to spend some time using your footpod to calibrate outside pace, rpe, hr, treadmill pace. I adjust grade on the TM until I get the same hr for a particular pace from the footpod. Eg

8:30 pace / 2.0*
8:00 pace / 2.5*
7:30 pace / 3.0*
6:30 pace / 3.5*

I find this to be TM specific, so when Im on a different TM I just adjust the grade until I get the correct HR.

Thanks will try that

A watch that expensive shouldn't require a foot pod to get within 10 seconds/km. My 920 is more accurate than my 945 on the treadmill it's laughable
