LONDON: GPS device-maker Garmin’s online fitness tracking service has gone down, leaving runners and cyclists struggling to upload data from their latest workouts. Garmin Connect, an app and website that works with the company’s popular line of fitness watches, remained out of service on July 24. “We are currently experiencing an outage that affects Garmin.com and Garmin Connect,” the company said on its Twitter accounts and website. Runners who use the Garmin system can’t be ranked because they can’t submit GPS data to organisers. “It’s frustrating in part because my Garmin is connected to my Strava (fitness app), and I like the community aspect on Strava,” Flood, 27, said Friday.
