I know that in certain activities, there is an option for GPS. I'm not seeing an optimal interval workout for running in the running activity but I am still learning the Sense. I can do what I want perfectly with the Interval workout. Being that run can be auto-detected, if I'm doing intervals using the Interval workout, will it show it as running or will it activate the GPS? I'm thinking not actually because I have to start it.

@Jane11 Hi Jane!  Interval workout does have a GPS option, it looks like it is automatically off by default.  You can turn it on by swiping up from the bottom of the screen where the little arrow is and then scrolling down to the GPS option.  I hope this helps!

YES!!! That did it! I'm glad you responded, I would have never found it. Am about to go test it so I'm glad I saw your response.
