Polar M430 lost modes

2 watchers

Running Beard Sep 2019 12:36am, 14 Sep 2019 2,378 posts	Quote Pin Running Beard Well it has been a while! Due to injury and general lard ar*sedness, my Polar M430 has been nothing but a wrist watch for far too long, but I have got my mojo polished and done a couple of mtb rides and managed a 5k this morning for the first time in >13mths. Just before I was crocked I replaced my 'dead' Garmin with a Polar M430 and was really pleased with it. However, it seems to have 'lost' the training modes when recording. Instead of the 'Running' and 'Cycling' I am sure that I remember it offering, the watch only now offers me two, "Other indoor' and 'Other outdoor'! I can change them by editing when the data is uploaded to the app but this is frustrating. Any suggestions as to how to correct this or pointers as to what I am doing/have done wrong, will be most appreciated.
