I get the 1 hour difference problem when we are on BST rather then GMT: this appears to be a problem with the files that I get from mapmyrun. This morning I finished my run at about half past eight. The last trackpoint in the file is recorded at time <Time>2020-10-15T07:32:33.805000+00:00</Time> According to ISO8601, this should in fact have been: <Time>2020-10-15T08:32:33.805000+01:00</Time> ie the time part should be local time, and the offset tells you the UTC time for a definitive point in time. This site is therefore doing the right thing, it is the app that is breaking things.
