Text File Conversion for Upload to Strava -- 3

Job ID: 31500368

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I have a text file (.dat) with over 1400 lines representing some basic information about over 1400 runs and bike rides stretching from 2002 thru 2011. I would like to import that data into Strava via a .tcx file. I believe a script that will read the text file entries and put select fields from each line into the appropriate place in a .tcx file format would be sufficient. Delivery could be either a functioning script(app) to do the conversion, or over 1400 individual .tcx files already converted from the source text (.dat) file that will successfully upload into Strava.

An example file created from the actual source file is included here. The first column is the date, the second the sport (TR = Run, TC = Cycling), the third column is the distance in miles, the fourth column is the total time. The fifth column is the average pace, but I don't think it needs to be imported. I think Strava will calculate it. The next column(s) contain notes. I'd like the date, sport, distance, time, HRAVR (average heart rate) and HRMAX (max heart rate) values included in the .tcx for import.

When submitting your proposal, place the following at the END of your proposal: I read the entire description, examined the attached file, can create a .TCX file from it, which includes date, sport, distance, time, average heart rate and max heart rate, and I have successfully imported the file into Strava. Thank you
