My Charge 5 automatically recognised exercise today (I was riding a horse) and plotted the route using GPS. But it’s showing as a run and will not let me change it to riding as it will for exercise that doesn’t use the GPS. This seems ridiculous. Also why can’t I select riding as one of the options when I know that’s what I am about to do? I can do that with swimming, Pilates etc.

Hi, @GKHar! Unfortunately, the only thing you can recategorize is a "workout." For both of your requests (having riding as an activity and being able to recategorize an activity), I'd suggest heading over to the Product Feedback forum. I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't a suggestion you could add your vote to already, but if not you can create a new one.
