Annoying "End Workout" message in Apple Watch

Greetings!


During my hikes (6-9 hours) I always run the hiking program on the Apple watch. Unfortunately I keep getting "End Workout" messages and the hiking program pauses until I press "Dismiss" on the watch. Sometime I stop to drink or rest for a couple of minutes and the program decides that I am done, so ... "End Workout." Other times it just happens out of the blue.


If I do not notice that the program has paused behind my back I keep climbing without that being recorded and from that point on I am relying on erroneous elevation info. It has happened and it is not nice.


Is there a way to prevent this from happening and make sure that the hiking program starts and stops only when *I* want and not when *it* decides I am done with climbing?


I like the program and I find it useful, but this "End Workout" is truly a nuisance.


Thanks!


Cheers
