Does anyone use a Garmin Forerunner 245?

I've bought this watch recently, been very happy with it apart from one thing - it doesn't record respiration while I'm exercising. Is this normal?

I have the same watch and yes. Some of the measurements are dependent on us being still at the time, so don’t work during a run... stress and spo2 also won’t work during movement.

I didn't know that about stress, I did about pulse ox. Respiration seems to work while just moving around or walking but not running. XZ
