    Hi guys, Anyone know of a way to convert Garmin files to Polar files. I a getting a new Garmin Watch and want to use the GPS on it but I like the Polar software. Does anyone know if there's a tool available to convert the file.
    According to what I read its possible. I could write it but that is too geeky.

    What format does the Polar take? I can give you a different file type from Sporttracks. Think I gave you a gpx but I can also give you a tcx. There might be others. Will have to check later.

    There are lots of options with Garmin files - I am currently playing with PowerAgent, TrainingPeaks, SportTracks and Garmin Training Center.

    Is the Polar software that good?

    I just like the Polar Interface. TBH, All I want is a tool that gives me a summary my week of my HR zones.. here's a polar graph that I use all the time. Training peaks almost does it but its not cheap. I'll try out Garmin Training Center when the device arrives.Polar has a better interface than WKO+ as well...
