FIT file corrupt - accidentally discarded run

Hey there,

I accidentally discarded a run on my Forerunner 35 when finished. The activity is displaying in my history, and I am able to see the heart rate details; etc. on the Garmin Connect app & website but unfortunately I am not able to import the data from my run with the gps map, elevation gain; etc. I have tried importing the FIT file from my Mac but it appears that the file is corrupt. I tried multiple websites to repair the file to get it uploaded but unsuccessful. Unfortunately I don't have a PC to use fit file repair tool. Any other tips would be appreciated so I can upload the activity. Thanks in advance!

Attach your fit file to this thread. We can look to see if it is repairable.

Zip the file, then in a reply post Insert >> Image/video/file >> click Upload >> browse for file >> OK.
Or upload the fit file to a file sharing service, such as OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc., make the file public, then paste a link to the file in your post.

@selogramp can you take a look at this file - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vPpbC_UfNdl8ZvC91HQ0i9zH5mU8u4vp/view?usp=drive_link I had the same issue on a 1030 plus.

Garlandspeed. Still need access. You can either make your shared file public or grant access to the request I submitted.

You should get an alert that seilogramp is requesting access.

This is done! You should have access now.

This will work as an activity - Pyrenees_Day_1___Oust-Hotel_De_La_poste_course-fixed.zip. Unzip then import into Garmin Connect Web.

However, your fit file appears to be a course, not an activity. What is the source of the file? From the \GARMIN\ACTIVTY folder? Even the name is like a course. I had to force Fit File Repair Tool to recognize it as an activity, change the activity type to cycling, then configure it as an Edge 1030 activity.

That makes sense, the name did look like a course. I'm attempting to recover the accidently deleted file using "Recoverit" from Wondershare. However, I cannot easily identify the activity file. I'll keep digging and report back. Please know I appreciate your help.
