File import/upload to Garmin Connect from earlier activities file?

Former Member over 14 years ago

Hi. I have now got the 310xt and started using Garmin connect for logging my activities. So far I`m really happy with the 310xt, and are learning to use the unit an Connect.

I have earlier used the 305 with SportTracs software for 1,5years- and wonder if it is possible to import a file from the 305/SportTracks so that I can get my older activities in Garmin Connect? If possible, which filetype/filename should i be loocking for?

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi, again: I found this in another forum post: "Garmin Connect only accepts tcx files", som I guess it is not possible to import/upload the SportTracks data to GC? But I still have some hope for a way/tips to solve this.....?

I tried to do this once before, but it was a while ago and I can't remember all the steps and I was only trying to convert one or two activities. In the end I found this site: http://sub.blog.lambeck.org/fitlog2tcx.pl that allows you to convert a fitlog (Sport Tracks) file to tcx format. I think you can only do 1 at a time so it might take a while if you have a lot of old activities.

Try looking in the Sport Tracks forums too, I think others have discussed this same issue there.

I will try..

Hi. Thanks for your reply. I have found this tread HERE on the SportTracks forum. I tried it on one activity (have 234 logged activities in SportTracks). I managed to convert from .FitLof-file to .tcx-file through the link you posted in your reply. But when I tried to import it in GC it failed/got an error-message. I will have to work on this some more, but it should be managable somehow.......

Hi,
I will also like to get some feedback about this too. Many years ( around 3,5 into Sporttrack...)
I did try convertion and it works although not sure if it got everything...

Let us know if the TCX converter is good to go!

Thanks,
D.
