No saved activity after recording stopped. 😭 Can I rebuild it with average hr/power data?

I always record my indoor cycling sessions with the Wahoo app.

Earlier today, I was about 20m away from finishing a 2h session when I noticed it had stopped recording. Turns out my phone had dropped to 2% battery.

I thought it disconnected the bluetooth to save battery, but then I noticed the bike and the Wahoo TRACKR heart rate monitor were somehow still connected. Anyway, I knew exactly where I was in the workout (just finishing the last interval and about to start the cooldown), so even though it wasn’t recording, I kept an eye on the numbers and finished the session.

I assumed it would save the activity up to that point… but nope. :face_with_symbols_on_mouth:

So my question is: is there any tool that lets me create a FIT file (or another format) with time and average hr and power for each interval, so I can upload it to Strava and Intervals.icu?

I know I can add a manual activity, but without hr/power (and therefore training load), it doesn’t impact metrics like relative effort, fitness, fatigue, form, etc.

Is there any way to build a file with average values like this?

Any help would be very much appreciated! :folded_hands:

I would try downloading the activity CSV, editing it (adding rows with the known data), and then uploading it back.
I’m not sure if it will work, though.

Thanks Gabriel!

I downloaded the CSV from another activity and edited it to match what this activity would have looked like. That was easy enough, but now how do I upload it to Intervals.icu? Or convert it to a format that Strava will take? I tried converting to TCX, but when uploading to Strava it failed with the message ā€œTime information is missing from fileā€.

Hi Aaron
I wasn’t aware that importing a CSV file back is a supporter exclusive feature. Please see more details about CSV downloading and importing below:

Yeah, I noticed that too.
I think I’m gonna sub, but only after my Strava expires.

Anyway, I just checked the Wahoo app and for whatever reason now the activity is showing up… :roll_eyes: It’s incomplete, but it’s better than nothing…

Thanks anyway! :+1:

If you have a very similar activity, you can change the date with fitfiletools.com and then import that copy on the set date.
