Edge 530 missing first 30 min of workout gps data but has other data

Strange behavior on my ride today. Was doing a workout, paused it a few minutes in (as I was stuck at a light), restarted it (done this many times) and continued on my way. When I got home, and uploaded the ride, I realized it's missing the gps data for the first 30 min or so. However, lap data for time, HR, power etc all seems to be there and correct. The unit didn't reset or appear to have any issues (though I was not looking at a screen with speed or distance on it). Anyone else have this issues before or know how to recover or maybe more important prevent that missing GPS in the future?

Hi, you could try using auto-pause so you don't have to manually pause the activity. I've used this for years and it works very well, and avoids losing chunks of the ride if I forget to unpause it.

As for this ride, you could try using Fit File Repair Tool or other similar tools/sites to see if the file is corrupt and repairable. If however there is actually no GPS data in that portion of the file, then there is nothing to recover.

Cheers
