Can't clear yellow time under "hiking" icon on apple 3 watch

A yellow time is stuck under my hiking icon - none of the other workouts have this problem (e.g., outdoor walk, swimming). I can't get it back to "open goal". I'm not sure what I did, but I can't clear it out. I am able to open the hiking up for a new workout, but the yellow time doesn't clear. I also think it is somehow draining my battery as it loses battery life quickly now.

Thanks fieryjack - I employed the third approach and after a few repeats the watch cleared out that persistent yellow time stamp and now it shows "open goal" again. It really stumped me and I still don't know how I got stuck there - but sure glad it isn't there anymore!
