Virtual Racer using Old FR60 .fit files on 610 - Connect won't let me...

Hello - Just received a 610 as a gift and am really enjoying it. One of the features I really like is the Virtual Racer.

I had been using a trusted FR60 for several years (maybe 4 years?) and loved the heck out of it. Once calibrated I found the footpod to be just as accurate as a GPS on roads and way more accurate on trails with dense canopy. With the 610, I would still like to use the footpod on occasion since I do mostly trail running.

What I want to do is take some of my old FR60 data and send it to the 610 and race against my old routes. However, that option is "grayed out" in Garmin Connect. I am only able to send activities with GPS data in it.

BUT, when I use my footpod only on my 610 (with GPS off), I am able to use the route that I just ran (using my footpod only) and save it as a race for a future workout. So I know the Virtual Racer works with only footpod data.

I've tried exporting my FR60 activity as a GPX and re-importing it as a GPX (or TCX) but that doesn't work, either.

Any help on this? Anybody else desire the same thing?
