can't import FIT file to Garmin connect due to some sort of date corruption

My 500 has created a bad file for some reason. I first tried to upload the FIT file to Strava, and that failed with the message "bad time data." The Strava support message says that I upload the FIT file to Garmin, and then export it as a TCX file.

Unfortunately, Garmin Express didn't upload it correctly, and I can't import it using the Import link on the Garmin Connect site either. It fails with the message "Some activities could not be created."

I tried to fix it with this online tool:

http://garmin.kiesewetter.nl/

That tool created a CSV and it flagged some records as suspect; but removing those records in the CSV, converting it back to a FIT file, and then importing that fixed FIT file to Garmin Connect still fails to create the activity.

Any thoughts help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Here is the original FIT file: .

Thanks,
