Help with corrupt FIT file

Question

My fenix 5 plus watch glitched while saving my swim this morning and the file appears to be corrupt as it shows up on my watch but will not load to garmin connect, either through the mobile app or via direct upload online. I have attached the .fit file pulled from my watch. Can anyone help me repair the file so it will upload to garmin connect. I tried a few online tools, but kept getting an error with them. Thank you to anyone who can help. I had to zip the file cause I couldn't post a .fit
