How To Upload Missing Activities From Garmin To Strava!

[@billionj]

I spent way too long trying to figure this out, then I spent 4 minutes watching this vid and viola! Good job brother! Thank you.

[@bayleymassey]

Ah man, its made my day that this video has helped you man! super glad it helped! Sometimes my Garmin still does this and i forget what to do so i look back at my own video to see what to do haha!!!

[@randomusername4489]

This is the perfect video. Small intro that explains why you might have the issue. Then a short concise way to fix the problem. Keep it up mate!

This happened to me on Saturdays ParkRun and it was my best run of the year so far so this video solved the problem and it’s now uploaded onto Strava 👍🏼 Was frustrating but I’m glad I now know how to solve this

[@bayleymassey]

Ahh mate that’s good to hear! Both the fact you had a good run and the fact you managed to get it up onto Strava. How did you do out of curiosity!!

[@user-oo8zo9ch9s]

@@bayleymassey managed to knock (15 seconds off ) so my 5k park run time is now 20:38. That’s why I was so frustrated that of all my runs this one never went onto Strava 😀 until I see this video obviously and it was a game changer

@@bayleymassey do you know if this works if you accidentally delete an activity? I can't remember if I deleted or if my garmin just didn't wanna play ball. But very useful and hahaha its true bro its like your service book ahahah

[@bayleymassey]

@@StrapAnuva1 yeah bro exactly the same. If you’ve deleted an activity off of Strava in the past you still can reupload it! Providing you never deleted it off your watch or the garmin app. Just follow the EXACT same process as the video, just locate the date in which you did your activity and that’s the file you need to upload. Easy as 😁😁😁😁

@@bayleymassey Do you know how to do it the opposite way? I have rides in Strava (from Rouvy) that don’t show up in Garmin Connect. Which messes up my training metrics.

[@bayleymassey]

@@rogerc23 hey roger my man! almost the same exact way :) So log onto strava (ON PC) and on the left hand side you should see 3 dots, select that and it should show "export GPX" Simply click that and save it to your desktop (or anywhere you will remember. Then log into Garmin connect (On pc) and in the upper right hand side it should show an image of an arrow going into a cloud. click that and select 'import data'. Then inside the box diagram, click anywhere and select the file you just downloaded and saved. It should then be fixed :) LET ME KNOW BRO!!

[@rogerc23]

@@bayleymassey Yes it works. Thanks. Only one thing to add to your comment is it imports as an unclassified activity. So I had to go and edit it and change it to a Cycling activity and now it shows up proper in my Garmin stats. Thanks mate.

[@bayleymassey]

@@rogerc23 ah great stuff! Sorry i didn't include that. I just did a little trial and error before commenting on your post to see if it was doable that's all. So i never actually imported anything to know whether it was going to be an 'unclassified activity' or would just be fine after uploading. but glad its all fixed now mate!

Morning, thanks for the video. So just tried the transfer from my device but it says it is a duplicate of a shorter ride I did on the same day. Garmin Connect has both rides, so do you know how I can transfer a file from Garmin Connect to Strava? The shorter ride synced with Strava but the main ride hasn’t made its way across 😩😩 Any assistance welcome 👍

Should this not automatically happen outside of tech issue like the hack. If its not syncing automatically ever, does every activity have to be manually uploaded. I've followed lots of tips to fix and it has never synced

[@bayleymassey]

Hmmm I see what you mean. The only ever issue I have had my self in regards to syncing is the one shown in the video. The only thing that I can say (from experience) is either doing it manually or disconnecting Garmin to Strava or Strava to Garmin on the apps and reconnecting it. Sorry i can’t help bro :(

[@drew3069]

Can u recommend me a running shoe? I run 3~5ks.

[@bayleymassey]

hey man! well firstyly i have just 2 questions. Do you frequently train for this event and also, will your 3~5k's be ran on the road or track :P. I ask this bevause if you are racing on the track, then it would be more beneficial to run in spikes :P

[@drew3069]

Bayley Massey yeah i frequently train i run everyday. Also i run on roads. Thanks

[@bayleymassey]

Ah nice man! Well i think the best shoe for optimal racing would be the nike 4%. I say this as its most probably the bestt shoe when it comes to giving you that edge and at a reason price. I wouldnt go as far as using the next% or the alpha fly - id leave that to top end runners. If however thats slightly out of your budget (as it is quite expensive) then i would suggest maybe the adidas adizero pros. About 100$/£ cheaper, light weight, good cushioning and a carbon plate to give you that edge!

Hey so my forerunner 45 connects to strava but then it disconnects everytime and I have to check everytime before I run so you know why this is happening

[@bayleymassey]

Hmmm interesting man. So a few things. Are you saying that you somehow use Strava to record your run rather than Garmin? or is it just generic connection problem from garmin to strava? I ask because when i run i typically just connect to GPS then when i finish my run it syncs to garmin connect on my phone via bluetooth and then Strava automatically shows that run after. Are you doing something different.

[@rohanchivukula2809]

@@bayleymassey I do what you do I run with gps and then it goes to the garmin app and automatically goes to strava as well, but strava for some reason disconnects my device so I have to keep on reconnecting it

Sadly man if you've deleted it from the device on which you was being tracked from, it can't be recovered. However if (for example) you ran a 5k with your gaming watch.... it uploaded to strava, and then u delete the run off strava, then this video is perfect to recover it. However if your scenario doesn't sound similar to this one&; you won't be able to recover it :(
