Sense 2 Asks If I want to Stop my Exercise (running).

[BillEng]

After I have been running for a little while, maybe 10 minutes, the app asks if I want to stop. If I dont notice and dont respond in time it stops on its own. Lately (maybe since the recent update) it seems to pause GPS while waiting for my response. The distance has been way off. Anyway to turn this off?

Don't know if this is what is happening to you, but,
there is an option under running in the Exercise App called Auto-Stop, should activate only if you have stopped running for a few minutes. but worth checking.
Assuming you have been not been using the Exercise App, go to the Exercise App on the Sense 2, choose Running, then swipe up to see several options that will apply only to running.  One of these options is Auto-Stop.  Turn this option off.  Actually that should not even apply unless you also have Auto-Start turned on.

Thanks. I have been using the exercise app, but have not tried swiping soon enough. If you wait until the GPS starts, you dont get these options. This time I swiped quickly and got te options before the GPS started. I had Auto Pause off but had never seen Auto Off. It is now off. Hopefully the next time I run (maybe Thursday 10/23) It will work properly. I am 77 and dont really go fast enough to call running. I have suspected that the App has been dissing my pace..

Didn't realize with the GPS thing.  What happens to me is that if the exercise is one of the top 3, it starts before I can get to the choices, so I have to start 3 other dummy workouts of other kinds to get them to the top, then stop them right away, to get my exercise of choice,walking, out of the top 3, then when I choose it, I have time to swipe to the other options before it starts, I guess the difference being I have GPS off, so it starts right away - what a pain needing to start those 3 dummy workouts to change anything, and a pain to try to explain.
