Edit TCX file for elevation

2000818 25 days ago

Hello,

Long story short I needed to edit an activity in Garmin Connect but there is no way to push the edited ride to Strava. I have been trying to navigate editing the TCX file to reflect the details. I have figured out how to adjust the mileage and time, but can't figure out how to edit the elevation gain in a TCX file so that it uploads the full ride elevation on Strava. Any suggestions?

Open the TCX file in a text editor. It is XML so you can read it and change everything. Then upload that file to Strava.

You can use the tools here to update the file: https://gotoes.org/gotoes/strava/

Yes, thank you! I see how to edit the text in a text editor in general, but what is the field in the text string that I should edit to add the correct elevation?

Have you tried using the Adjust Elevation function in Strava? That is easier than editing the track points.
