I am using a 320XT and I can export all my data locally and then upload it on my local computer to use with Sporttracks. Now i have read that you can export files from polar (flow?), but i understand you get the route on one file (gpx) and the workout (HR) on another file (TCX). Is this still correct? Is there any way to export it all in a single file (like on garmin connect?)

Also I should have said i upload all my training in fetch, is there a way to upload polar workouts (with the same detail and data) into fetch?

It gave me the option of a TCX (amongst others) which had latitude/longitude, time, and HR - enough to keep most training logs happy. You can upload TCX individually, or put a bunch of them into a ZIP file, and upload that (link on the 'Train' page for the ZIP upload). It's not as seamless as Garmin though.
