I imported Forerunner 305 activities back in 2010, for several years, using Garmin Express, but I don't know where to find them now. Where are they, how do I access them?

They are in the Garmin Connect account you used in 2010. If you use another one now, sign out, and sign in back with the original credentials. Easiest done with Garmin Connect Web: https://connect.garmin.com/
If you create a new account by accident or on purpose you are a completely new user with no connection to your old account, so Garmin can't connect you with it.
If you started to use Garmin Connect in 2010 you probably used a username instead of your email address as login. I believe using the email address as username was added later on.
I started to use Garmin Connect in 2010 and still got a username that I can use to login.
... and if you do not remember your original user name or email address, check out your email archive - perhaps you can find some old email from Garmin there. And if not, you can always look up your account on the page https://connect.garmin.com/modern/connections/search, where you can search both for login names, as well as for email adresses.
Was there an app that had the option to only use it offline without having to create an account?
You're probably referring to Garmin Training Center - Switch From Garmin Training Center to Garmin Connect | Garmin Customer Support
If you had no local backup process and/or did not upload to Garmin Connect, then the chances of recovering this data is slim to none. The backups would typically be in the *.bin file format
Brilliant! I found Training Center on an old computer, activities intact and able to export, thanks for all you all's help!
