RE: State of Exhaustion - September 21, 2020

Hey! I'm new to Exhaust community, I like it but I was wondering about the best way to upload my workouts. I usually use MapMyFitness for my runs and bike rides, because it works well on my Samsung watch and I am not a big fan of Strava (I know most people like it, but for some reason, not me...). I tried exporting a TCX file from MMF, but it wouldn't import in Exhaust. I just get a Server error (500) message. I converted the TCX to GPX, and tried again. Now it imports, but the workout is 0.01 mile, instead of 3.1... Finally, I just imported the TCX on Strava website, and connected strava with Exhaust. It worked, but I am not sure it's the easiest method. If anybody has a better way, I would appreciate it. If it's not the best place to discuss this, please let me know where. Thanks!
Hey @manuvert! Welcome!
This is indeed the place to ask these questions.
Let me dig into what's going on with your TCX / GPX issues and see if I can make heads or tails of it. There might be a unit-conversion issue happening somewhere -- If I recall, I wrote everything in metres/kilometers, so it might be hitting a wall with miles.
I'll get back to you soon with some updates, I hope.
Thanks for looking into this. For now, I'll keep using the Strava intermediate TCX import, this seems to work okay.
