Edit Multisport activities

Hi,

I tried the search function but could not find anything to resolve my problem..

I have done a triathlon on the weekend and uploaded it to Garmin Connect. I really like that it now shows u as a single event and not as 5 individual activities as before (swim, bike, run and 2 transitions).

My problem is however that I cannot edit the workout. Like so many times I forgot to press lap after the triathlon and now my total time is way too long. I tried to use the edit function and just change the time (how I can do it with normal activities) but my changes are not being saved.

I am not sure if that's a bug, was done by intention or I simply make a mistake but does anyone have a solution on this?


Any help is really welcome!

Thanks

    Hi everyone,
    I see this post is really old but still alive :) as many of you, I had a problem yesterday also with my multi-sport activity. I've raced a triathlon and I must have pressed lap 2 during the swim and end up with transition 1 as the second part of my swim and transition 2 as my cycle and transition 2 indeed. I've downloaded Fit File repair tool and edit my .FIT file. Was able to merge my lap 1 /2 but then not sure how to change the transition 2 to cycle ? Can I just change the 'Sport' of the given session in 'Sessions and Laps' tab ?
    Another question, how do you then change the file on your watch ? Do you just keep the same name and copy/paste it in 'Activity' directory ?

    Maybe the best way is to share my file.

    Thanks in advance for your feedback.

    hi Celine,

    I'll start work on your file when I get home from work this evening - or datezz may get to it before me...either way, one of us will look at it for you.

    cheers

    Amazing Mike & Don, thank you so much !
  • Hi,

    Will you please be so kind to edit my triathlon activity to adjust Swim, T1, Bike and T2 start-stop times? I though I pressed button after swim...but no...and the I double-pressed button into Bike run :-S...so only my Run sector is OK. It's easy to see what the right strat-stop times are into map...furthermore, these are the data from race organizer (0:40:17 - 2:19:56 - 1:27:02) but I don't really know to what section times (swim, bike, run) are added T1 and T2 times



    I tried myself to edit with online tools but I don't see right options for the edits I need...

    Thanks in advance

    Hi,
    I also messed up yesterday's triathlon as I pressed the start/stop instead of lap each time (yes, I was stupid). So everything is like a long swim with several start/stop which should be lap/switch. Is there any tool in which I can modify them instead of disturbing kiwimtnbkr every time?

    hi mc4ren,

    Give this file a try - note that your splits are as close as I could get them due to you using 'Smart Recording' and not '1 second recording.

    All my file repairs are done using the power of the Fit File Repair Tool.

    cheers

    Thank you Mike! At least now I can see three different activities.

    hi loppindopi2000,

    Due to you using 'smart recording' and not '1 sec recording', this file is as close as I could get to your official times.

    I would STRONGLY recommend using 1 second recording, especially for these shorter distance triathlons.

    cheers

  • Hi everyone,

    May you please edit my attached duathlon activity with timings below?

    R1 - 00:00 - 19:28 (19:28)
    T1 - 19:28 - 20:31 (1:03)
    B1 - 20:31 - 54:27 (33:54)
    T2 - 54:27 - 55:07 (0:40)
    R2 - 55:07 - 1:05:55 (10:48)

    I just extracted them by looking at the points in the map within Garmin Connect.
    I'm a total disaster at remembering to press the lap button at transitions.. I'd really be happy to get it done automatically as long as possible...

    Thanks & regards
