Instructions for importing your Garmin Compatible Training Plan

After purchasing your plan, and loading your training plan into your online TrainingPeaks.com calendar, you should have received an email with a .tcx file attached.

Follow these steps to import that .tcx file into Garmin Training Center and then send the workouts to your Garmin device (Forerunner 301,205,305,405 or Edge 205/305)

Step 1 : Save the .tcx file you received in your email to your computer's desktop

Step 2: Open Garmin Training Center, from the File menu select, Import, Workouts as show in the image below.
