Outdoor Walk activity screen disappears during activity

Apple Watch Series 8, Watch OS 10..0.1, ios 17.0.3


Recently after OS updates, when I use the Outdoor Walk activity, it goes away during the walk. Before, the stopwatch/distance etc. face stayed on the watch face for the entire walk.


Now, at some point during the activity it changes back to the clock watch face and I can't figure out how to get back to the Activity recording to End, and therefore record it.


No matter what I try, swiping left or right it won't return to the stopwatch area. If I go back to activity/Outdoor

Walk, it just starts a new walk recrording. How do I get back to it???

on iPhone, Watch app, My Watch tab, General, Return to clock

Scroll down to the Workout app and tap on it

Ensure Return to App is turned on "when in session"
