I've been using the logrun spreadsheet for a number of years but am tired of running out of rows each year, and then when I add some, some of the graphs and calculations no longer work with the added rows. So I was thinking of switching to some online logging. Does anyone have a recommendation as to a good logging system? THanks.

It's not online, but I use WKO+. It's basically TrainingPeaks (blasphemy!) but as a program instead of an online Javascript. I believe Mark B uses The Daily Mile (or something like that?), and a few people use Garmin Connect.

I've used Running Ahead for several years, and it pretty much does all I need a log to do. You can upload your Garmin data easily, which was the most important feature for me.

If you feel like oversharing, RunningAHEAD also has a Facebook app that allows your mileage entires to post as a status update.

I use SportsTracks. Free software, syncs well with everything easy to use.

I've been using Running2win for about 5 years now. I like it but really haven't looked into any others to compare.

For it's simplicity, www.dailymile.com. I also use Training Peaks.

I use Running Ahead consistently. I also sometimes use daily mile for some charity challenges, and Garmin conect when I run with my watch.

Question. Free always works for me, but what are the benefits of choosing any of them, please?

I've been using dailymile.com for a couple years. I like it, and it does post to facebook if you choose. I don't. It has any type of workout you choose to record, good graphics, social "friends", keeps track of training gear. But like someone else mentioned, I haven't used any thing else so I can't compare.

I also keep track on my own Excel document, just because that's where I started my first running log--nothing fancy, just a log.

Thanks for all these suggestions. I think I'm going to give runningahead.com a shot for January and see how i like it. I try to do a lot of workouts in the morning so it will be good to be able to enter the data online from work rather than wait till the evening to edit the spreadsheet. FWIW, here was my thoughts on the other suggestions:

TrainingPeaks - I couldn't bring myself to try this since they trashed Hal's site so bad
SportsTracks - I used this before but it is not online so the same issue would exist
running2win.com - unless I missed something, it would not let me keep a log
dailymile.com - nice but didn't allow for interval/tempo type runs where each miles is different

Thanks again.
