Interval training. Next interval notification.
-
Hi everyone!! Today I did my first interval training with my new Race 2. I did a 20 x (30’’ run + 30’’ rest) following a Suunto Plus guide that I created time ago.
I was expecting the watch to notify some seconds before each interval but that did not happen. My wife’s Race S notifies her before each interval since the last FW update.
Anyone knows what is the issue with the Race 2?
Thanks!!

@Luis-Andés-Olmedo did the Guide you’ve used was created before update or after ?
On my SV and SRs it works only with new guides created after update -
@Tieutieu thanks!!! I created the guides before the update. So then I need to re-create all of my guides? I will try
-
@Luis-Andés-Olmedo Yep try it but it should work. That’s what I had explained in this post.

My fault!! I missed that part of your message

Thank you again!

@Luis-Andés-Olmedo my pleasure. by the way it’s too bad that Suunto doesn’t communicate anywhere about this (big to me) improvement of structured workouts. It’s not mentionned in FW release notes, neither in guide creation help section in the app.

I too have this issue that started around September of 2025. After going rounds and rounds with Suunto support that take a week between responses, they informed me that this was a “Known Issue” and will be addressed in the future. Suunto Support then informed me that I should send my watch into their repair center. After 2+ months of it being in their repair center they informed me that, “We have carefully inspected your product based on the reported faults and performed all the necessary tests. Unfortunately, the damage is beyond economical repair.” I have responded with, "I’m confused by your statement that the product is “beyond economical repair.” Your support staff has already informed me that the issue I reported is a known firmware issue that is expected to be addressed in a future firmware update.
That directly contradicts your assessment that the device is damaged beyond repair. To be clear, there is no physical damage to the unit. The problem is that the firmware is not functioning as designed.
Can you please clarify:
What specific “damage” you are referring to?
How a firmware-related issue qualifies as being beyond economical repair?"
I’m really thinking about going back to a Suunto competitor if they don’t straighten this out.

What? And you actually sent it in? That is crazy. Is this the Race 2 or what watch? And lastly, which service center is this?
