Why does my Apple Watch S7 suddenly stop recording my walk?

Hello PaulaWr,

When you start your walk, do you normally Use the Workout app on your Apple Watch to start the workout or do you allow your Apple Watch to detect you? Also, have you tried to re restart your devices since noticing this issue? Here's how to restart your Apple Watch and iPhone:
