Corrupt File - struggling!

Hi everyone,

I'm having issues with a file from my run this eveing. Having had a look around I've tried to fix it using fitfiletools.com and also run it through http://garmin.kiesewetter.nl/. I tried to upload the data on Garmin connect using the files from fitfiletools but no luck with either. My tech skills are not the best and other advice seems to centre around playing around with the file itself.

Any advice or suggestions very welcome!
