Recovering a deleted run

"I doubt that it could be recovered.

Still you could look and see for yourself. If you plug it in to a computer and navigate to the drive using Windows Explorer or Finder, you will see a Garmin folder. Inside that folder is an Activities folder. This is where the activity .fit files are stored."

Same here - what a ridiculous mechanism to make that even possible.

It drives me mad that my vivoactive 3 doesn’t have a screen lock. Normally it deletes any activity I do in the rain because the rain sets the screen off. Even if I cover it with my coat, the rain on my coat can delete an activity. Today I went out & it wasn’t a great run, because it’s 115 degrees here, but I ran a new route & wanted to record it, but putting my flask back in my bag deleted it. I wish there were a way of a) recovering things (like a trash function) or b) not deleting activities but deciding not to sync them. That would be a far better way of managing it.
