How to Transfer files from Strava

Former Member over 9 years ago

Hello,

I am getting fed up with using Strava as my training log. I have used it for my activity log but I am looking into Garmin Connect instead as it has more information and analysis.

I downloaded all my GPX files from Strava and just uploaded to Garmin Connect. However, I noticed the type of activity, such as "ride" or "run", did not transfer. Nor did the name of the activity. Instead they are all named Uncategorized for activity type and for name.

Is there anyway to have this info transferred or am I up a creek and have to manually edit each of the 650 activities?

Thanks for the input!

I used https://tapiriik.com to transfer my hikes from Strava to Connect, and I noticed that names and categories didn't come over, either. However, when using https://tapiriik.com to transfer from Runkeeper to Connect, names did come over, so it seems to have something to do with the way Strava stores its info vs. the way other services do.

Thanks for the response. That looks like a nifty website to connect those websites.

Based on what you are experiencing, it sounds like there is no way the name and type of activity will be automatically transferred over : (
