Why can't I edit my run?

[Sallybally]

I have just been for a run without my phone and the distance recorded on my watch is well out. I would like to edit the run as I know the actual distance but can't work out how to do it. It looks like I can edit a walk because it has a pencil icon next to it but this doesn't appear to be an option for runs. Is there anyway of doing it?

@Sallybally, you cannot edit tracked activities. The only thing you can do is delete the recorded one, and then manually enter an activity to replace it using your measured data.  If an activity has a pencil next to it, then only that can be edited is the name of the activity - for example, you can change the name of the activity from Walk to Run, or from Workout to Jazzercise, etc.

Thanks Larry. That worked.
