The best workout type to track outdoor skating?

I’m training for the Berlin skate marathon. When I use the skating workout it doesn’t track miles and when I do cycling it doesn’t register as a workout as in exercise minutes.


What is the best workout type to use to track, speed distance calories burned etc etc while on skates and for it to register as a workout?


Any help would be appreciated.

Hello, Andi_d78,


Thanks for using Apple Support Communities, it's great to have you here.


While we aren't able to recommend a specific workout type to meet your needs, we want to recommend that you check out this resource which goes over all of the options available to you: Workout types on Apple Watch - Apple Support. We would specifically like to point out the section titled "Other" in the list of available workouts at the top of that page. That section goes over how you can do a custom workout when you aren't able to find one that precisely matches your activity.

If you're still looking for a little additional support, we would recommend that you contact Apple directly so that you can work with an advisor who specializes in the Health features of your Apple devices. They may be able to assist further from here. You can start by reaching out here: Contact Apple Support


We hope that this information is helpful.


​Have a great day!
