  1. Sometimes my heart rate is shown in white, sometimes red and is sometimes greyed out.
  2. Sometimes the distance is shown in white and at other times blue.

You can hilight different metrics with the Digital Crown and each metric has its own color. Heart rate is red, distance is blue, time is yellow, etc... Just turn the crown to hilight the metric you want.
