Slack -> Mobile -> Garmin ?
Sometimes the notifications can be useful. If I can I don't take my mobile with me on a run/ride. The only runs I do with my mobile are run commutes, but one long training run I was doing for my first marathon (which I was gathering sponsorship for) I carried my phone for some reason. I was on the verge of giving up 25km in to a 28km training run when I got a notification from JustGiving saying that someone had made a donation, that was enough to remind me it wasn't just about me and I scraped through the last 3km of the run.
Slack, however, is absolutely not the source of useful notifications when out for a run/ride.
