Hi Wallygator2152, We appreciate you reaching out to us. We understand that your Apple Watch will pause an outdoor type workout unexpectedly.


Does the workout pause, or does it ask you if you are still working out?

First, let’s check for a software update and make sure that you are running the latest version of iOS and watchOS.

While it isn't inherently assured that an update will resolve the issue, updating to the latest software version for your devices can help isolate potential software issues. 

Kindly secure a backup and update.

Update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch Update your Apple Watch


If the issue continues after the update, please unpair your devices, then pair them back again.

Performing these steps may help correct any feature that is not working as expected.

Unpair and erase your Apple Watch

Take care!
