moving from 910xt to 965

StanByk

Hi all,

I have just orderd a Forerunner 965 as my old much loved 910xt has started to fall to pieces. It hasn't arrived yet, but I am already wondering what the best way is for me to transfer my workouts. I guess the best way is to do this via Garmin Connect. Is that correct?

Now, my workouts were initially created by me on SportTracks of which I stil have a running copy installed on my computer, however, they are not on garmin connect. Is there a way for me to import the workouts into Garmin Connect on my PC? Either directly from the watch, or by exporting them from Sporttracks into a fit or tcx file, that I then import into Garmin Connect? I have already tried the latter, but can't figure out how to import the tcx/fit files into Connect.

Any help I can get would be very much appreicated (or if you could point me to a good web-resource).

Thanks so much,
Robert

    Assume you mean workouts and not activities? For workouts that are already on Garmin Connect, send the workouts to the new 965 using the app or Garmin Connect Web / Garmin Express. Best to leave the activities only on Garmin Connect and not on either device.

    Since the 910XT is an ANT+ device this is more problematic than the current devices. If the workouts are not on Garmin Connect, it's been years since using SportTracks, so not sure how this would work exporting out of SportTracks, then into Garmin Connect. Can you zip then attach a copy of your tcx/fit files to this thread so we can take a look?

    • Zip the files, then in a reply post Insert >> Image/video/file >> click Upload >> browse for file >> OK.
    • Or upload the file to a reputable file sharing service, such as OneDrive, Google Drive, Dropbox, make the file public, then paste a link to the file in your post.

    Thanks, seilogramp!

    With workout I mean something like: run 1 km at pace x, then 200 meters at pace y, then 800 meters at pace z, repeat the last 2 x-times, etc.

    The problem is that the workouts are not on Garmin Connect. I created them with Sporttracks and then used SportTracks to export them to the 910xt.

    I am attaching an example. In total I have about 10 such workouts. If it is not possible to transfer them, I could always just recreate them.

    Thanks so much! 

    Let me know what you think

    All the best,

    Robert

    Hi,

    Thanks! I will give this a go! The watch is with the courier, so I should get it very soon.

    All the very best,
