Pairing TrainerDay and Garmin Activities

1

Hello,

I’m wondering about why my two activity files didn’t pair this morning. This is the first time I tried to record this way so let me describe it.

I recorded a ride in TrainerDay and used TD to control Zwift. TD sent the file to Dropbox where Intervals picked it up no problem.

To get speed and elevation, I recorded the ride in Zwift and had RunGap send it to GarminConnect. GC sends to Intervals - the second file. (This is my normal approach when I don’t use TD to control the trainer).

I now have two activities for today. I was hoping that they would be close enough to get paired into one activity.

Thoughts?

Thanks, Mark

Activity files will not pair. You can pair a scheduled workout with a performed activity but pairing 2 activity files with all the different traces and metrics can’t be done in Intervals. It’s a complex task to merge 2 files with multiple streams that need to be synched.
This tool will do that: (one time donation needed for saving FIT files)

That makes sense. Thanks for clarifying and confirming. It sounds like the easiest route would be to just add the speed and elevation data manually to the TD/Dropbox file.
