interrupted run registration by an event-type activity (violence act)

The registration of my run on New Year's Eve (my first half marathon) was interrupted by an event-type activity. The running activity was shortened, I registered the further distance as a separate activity. Is it possible to fix this and get a badge for the half marathon? Additionally, it did not award me the 15 km badge in December.

  • Is it possible to fix this and get a badge for the half marathon?

    Yes, there are two ways: 

    • The simple one - edit the main activity in Garmin Connect, and change the distance accordingly
    • The clean one - export both activities from Garmin Connect Web, and merge them with an external tool (for example the File Combiner at FIT File Tools). Then delete the original two activities in GC, and import the merged one
    Additionally, it did not award me the 15 km badge in December.

    If you asked yesterday, it would be still possible, but I am afraid that December badges are already closed today. 

  • Hi,

    thanks, first option worked: )
    I tried yesterday with merging activities using Garmin BaseCamp and import merged one, this option didn't work.

  • Sometimes FIT File Tools doesn't work with merging activities. There are other tools, such as Fit File Repair Tool that can do this, however it does require a paid subscription to export merged activities. If you want to attach the two files here that you want to merge, we can do it for you. Or you can send me a PM.

    • 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 reputable file sharing service, such as OneDriveGoogle DriveDropbox, make the file public, then paste a link to the file in your post.
  • Thanks, I was able to merge activities and import to garmin connect, but I didn't get the badges.

    By editing the distance I have at least the badge for half marathon.
