Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Urgent! (sorry!) Log a run on Fetch with no watch! :-)

Omg the terrible inconvenience of downloading a file and importing it! What has the world come to ;-) ? (My Aldi watch/app combo is somewhat more complicated. Results in a gpx file.)

I think Fetch mentioned tcx files being better as they had more data. But as you'll only be plotting a route, that's probably irrelevant.

You only get a FIT to download if a FIT was uploaded from Garmin. It will be GPX or TCX to be uploaded to here.

HappyG, I just realised why you're so concerned, you'll be stuffed WSW-wise!

Larks, when I chose "Export Original" on strava having logged with strava app on phone, the file it saved is .FIT?

I think if you then import it to Garmin it'll auto thingy to Fetch and then your history will be complete on both platforms

I didn't think there was an import into Garmin option, not from strava app?
