Create my swim, bike, run, and gym workouts on my watch

A triathlete uses a Garmin MCP through AI Desktop - forked because the stock version couldn't build his workout types - so the AI creates and schedules his swim, bike, run, and gym sessions, pushing them to his Garmin calendar, which syncs straight to the watch on his wrist.

How it works

  1. Fork the Garmin MCP to support swim, bike, run, and gym workout types
  2. The AI creates the sessions
  3. Schedules them in Garmin Calendar
  4. They sync to the watch and GPS unit

Why it’s worth knowing

The agent's output isn't advice - it's the structured workout that appears on the watch, built because the owner rewired the connector when it couldn't make a swim session.
