Not recording from start of workout

[Clonetrooper]

So I have a series 8 and my Mrs has a 6. If we go for a walk or run together and both forget to start our workout then both our watches will give us the prompt that it appears you have started a 'run' or 'walk' usually around the 1k point. If we both select that we are doing the workout my watch records the activity from the start but my wife's records it from that point.

I cannot find anything in the settings for this.

Any ideas?

given the scenario you have indicated, with my Series 8, the run only begins at the point that it reminds me at.

Hmm strange because mine will back date to when I started the activity. I just went for a walk and when I hit one kilometre it prompted me and the timer was at 11 minutes when I confirmed I was outdoor walking.
