Hi
Over the last few weeks I’ve noticed my total ascent has been a bit wild which is good for the stats but feels like cheating lol.
Any ideas how I can fix this?

I don't know, but isn't there an option in the menus to change the way it calculates elevation - I think between using the barometer to measure it based off air pressure and using some form of GPS co-ordinate based lookup?

Make sure it is all updated and the satellite data is updated (I believe it happens whenever you sync but worth plugging in to computer and doing it via that rather than air).
The correction thing, I think is in Strava and not Garmin...
I've not noticed anything unusual but haven't tracked much for last few weeks so unlikely to have spotted an issue myself.
Anything on the Garmin forums?
