I want to track my paddling (kayak / canoe) on the map like it does when you run / cycle; is this possible?

On apple watch I have noticed when you choose "other" workout it won't use the GPS to track the distance on your paddle.


Anyone have any suggestions on how I can get around this, or a setting I can change?

There is a workout called "rower" in the workout app,this maybe worth a try as there isn't a canoeing or kyaking workout type in the app.

Yes you have a point about the calories,it may mess things up,the only thing I can think of is to try a workout type that may burn similar amounts of calories but also uses GPS tracking.
