Hope you’re enjoying the forums @Iwowner! Thank you @USAF-Larry for moving this post! In regards of your inquiry your Fitbit Surge can store 35 hours of GPS data before deleting some to make room for more. So, you were very close. To ensure that all your GPS data is saved to your exercise history, sync your Surge regularly. 

A daily sync is recommended but not required for daily activities. Most Fitbit trackers record detailed minute-by-minute data for seven days, so if you're able to sync weekly you'll find all your data on your Fitbit dashboard. (Fitbit Alta records minute-by-minute data for five days; Fitbit Alta HR for six days). After seven days, Fitbit trackers can store daily totals for up to 30 days.

Hope this hepls!

Thanks. I'm going to go up to 30 hours straight with GPS and am looking at recharging enroute.
