XC Workout Field

XC Workout Field shows the workout your coach published on your watch screen while you run, next to your pace and distance. No stopping, no opening an app. It is a data field: add it to any activity screen the way you would add heart rate or lap pace. It shows the day's session in as much detail as the field size allows, wrapping to two or three lines in a larger field and shortening to one line in a small one. The workout is downloaded in the background before you run and stored on the watch, so the field keeps working with no phone and no signal. If the stored session is not today's, the field greys it and marks it rather than pretending it is current. This field is a companion to the XC Workout Companion watch app, which shows the full plan, weekly mileage, and the exercise checklists. Both read the same coach-published spreadsheet and both use the same team code, which you enter once in each app's settings in the Garmin Connect IQ phone app. Without a team code the field shows a sample workout so you can see how it looks. Enter the team code your coach shared privately to see your team's plan. The field does not record anything, does not collect athlete data, and does not control your activity. Use Garmin's own activity recording exactly as you do now.
