Help fixing corrupt Fit File

Hello -

Yesterday I ran my first marathon, but have since found my FIT file is corrupted. I stopped a lot (due to high temperature) throughout the route and this is longer than my normal runs, so potentially just pushing limitations of this watch (Forerunner 35). I've never had this issue before.

In the meantime, I plan to remove additional activity files from the watch manually, so that I can free up to some space on the watch

Is anyone able to help me fix this file so that I can save this memorable run? Thank you!

Yes, I paused the activity manually from the watch during all of these breaks.

Thanks for finding the 3 corrupted data records. I did notice the watch "glitch" a few times during the run. Meaning that the watch face froze for ~10-30 seconds, but then seemed to update eventually and update the time/distance correctly.

Your attached file looks to work perfectly and have uploaded it manually. Thank you so much!!!
