Move some activities to different account - Is it possible?

I have a Garmin 305 which i share with my wife. All our data is loaded to one garmin connect account. I name all the activities that are uploaded so i can easily filter to show either my activities or my wife's.

I have now decided it would be better to have 2 separate garmin connect accounts in order to utilise garmin connect better.

Question is how can I transfer some of the activities from one garmin connect account to garmin connect another?

Why not just upload the activities to the new account through the upload button?

I have over 200 activities which I would need to manually configure and add Activity Names, types, etc, which yes I could do manually, but I was hoping for an easier way...

Ahh... I can see how my suggestion could be daunting.

Its quite simple, logon to account1, go into the activity itself, on the menu bar there is an option to "export", select and export as a GPX file to a location on your PC. Now logoff as account 1 and logon as account 2. Use the upload pushbutton and then select "manual upload" this will allow you to select a file from your PC (the one you have just exported from account 1) and will upload it into account 2.

Job done.

For a few activities not a problem, but for 100's of activities, doing each one manually would take hours!

I also save all my data using the Garmin Training Center PC application, so I was able to easily sort the activities between myself and my wife.

I was then able to export a TCX file which contained all the activities from my wife and upload it to Garmin connect. This uploaded all the tracks and data, but I still had to manually change the names of all the activities. I then went into the original garmin connect account and delete my wifes's activities, so it only showed mine.

It took a little while, but I got there in the end.
