My device is set for goals of of time and 5k and the display shows kilometres but the only alerts I get (by buzzing) are at mile intervals and the map display of my run shows mile markers! Can’t seem to find the answer online so VRBs it over to you.

You should be able to set the autolap for miles or kilometers in the settings. Have you checked the manual online?

My forerunner 35 does this sometimes. I googled it, and it's a known software glitch 😣 . I sorted mine by switching the lap function (are you ready for this?)... Off and on again after syncing. I know. Infuriating, and you only know it's worked when you try it.

Thank you. I’ll try that. I used to say when I called IT support at work that they were getting a lot of money to tell me that but can’t say that to you!! Chers.
