Is there any way to make your Fitbit not start your run when you select run? I've noticed that if I start my run and the GPS isnt connected, my distance isn't entirely accurate. I'd like to allow my GPS to connect, then be able to start my run when I am ready to. 

 

For now I've found that I can pause my workout until the GPS connected then start it again once I start running, but that causes some fumbling and is kind of clunky.

Editing to say that I can't do this when using the Run shortcut I have placed on my double press. If I go through the exercise app, then select run, it won't start until I want it to, but if I use the Run shortcut, it auto starts.
