Malformed fit file

Hi,

I have a malformed fit file which I cannot upload to strava or garmin connect... I was wondering if anybody would be able to help me... I tried to download the fit file repair tool, but for some reason I can't get it to run on my pc... Would anybody please be so kind to try to fix it?

It can be found and downloaded here:
