Garmin records were lost. Luckily i could load the records from my Garmin 201 (i'd given to brother in law) and my current garmin 305. Could anyone advise which files i should back up & how to reload - to external hard drive etc i'd be very grateful thanks.Rob
Ripcurl Running Feb 2009 11:07am, 14 Feb 2009 48 posts	Ripcurl Running This is more heart rate thread related but used garmin 305 for first time to find rhr the figures went from 58 - 65 should I use the highest No? will try again for a few days to find an average.

Also, if your 58-65 were taken just sitting about during the day, then check before you get out of bed in the morning too. You're after the true lowest figure you can find. WrexhamRob - sorry can't help. Hope someone cleverer than me is along to help soon.
thechunkygentleman Feb 2009 11:41am, 14 Feb 2009 129 posts	thechunkygentleman I did my resting hr test this morning and got quite elevated figures. That was because i needed to pee. Too much info perhaps but it does make a bit of a difference
Ripcurl Running Feb 2009 11:49am, 14 Feb 2009 49 posts	Ripcurl Running Thanks paul, I did it in bed this morning thought maybe it was the hr strap playing up as haven't used it before I did spit on the sensors so all is well. Thanks again.

If you ever need to restore then go to File -> Import -> All and load that .tcx file. I haven't tried this myself yet, but it should work...
