tried to import from the Garmin Ben, but it says:

"UnsupportedDataTypeException: Your device does not support reading of the type: FitnessHistoryDirectory"

Something to do with how the Garmin's operate, so I will have to wait till the website supports it properly.

you used the import from the workout section? it has a specific garmin bit

garmin 500 mate, no apparently there is something on the web about the garmin using a different type of file structure now and they haven't given it out to developers. Think it will get sorted in a couple of days

Well I managed to export from the Garmin connect website by doing the following:

http://connect.garmin.com/proxy/activity-service-1.0/tcx/activity/xxxxxxxx?full=true

Where 'xxxxxxxx' is the activity number. This will let you download an individual TCX file, which you can then import using the bottom option on endomondo.

Only thing is now, I have imported all of that to the website, but none of my calories are showing on the ranking. Hmmm

My GPS seemed to teleport em the other day, I burned up 9000 calories :-)

There is a bug with Endomondo challenges, where the start time is always 11:00pm, so to make it for September you'll need to set the start date as 31st August - I see you've already done this!

The challenge type is currently set to most active minutes, not most calories.

Cheers
