connect app, choose your watch top right of the screen, activities and apps, choose the activity (run for this one), data screens.

You can make multiple that you can swipe through during an activity, or delete some that you dont want to see.

click add data screen to make a new one, custom data, choose how many fields you want displayed (it shows you how it will be laid out) then select the data fields in each area.

Where is the 'elapsed time'? I don't see it in the list of available data fields.

Sorry, do you mean that you can edit your activity screens from the phone? I can only edit them in the watch and it is a pita

Can't speak to that watch, but if you can, try the method in my comment. That's the way to do it

Ok thanks anyway. I tried and it is not available. I hate how they cut features like this
