Today, I forgot to stop my Garmin after my run, so I exported it as GPX, edited out the after-the-run trackpoints, and imported it back into Garmin. I then had to set the import to a running activity, but I was surprised to see that even after I did that, the imported version showed a "Bike Cadence" which, of course, doesn't make sense for a run. This looks to me like a Garmin Connect bug.
(Rather than this export/edit/import approach, I'd really prefer that Garmin Connect allowed editing of Activities other then just overwriting the collected data. In particular, a simple "split activity into two at a specificed hh:mm:ss into the activity" would work for nearly all of the edits I would want. If I didn't want the post-run activity data, I would then just delete that activity.)
But for now, if you could fix the import, that would be sweet. ciq.forums.garmin.com/.../1232699.jpg
