Running Ahead

Cool Running and Running Ahead are the 2 online running logs which helps me keep track of my swim-bike-run mileage.

They also did a good job of keeping track of my shoes' mileage.

Recently, Cool Running decided to transfer their customers' account to Active Trainer.

I must say that I am glad that I kept 2 running logs , cos Active Trainer made a huge migration mess. I can understand the users' frustration.

1) Workouts are not migrated - Can you imagine that you have been logging your logs for a year or more and lose all those data in a migration?

2) Mistakes in the workouts made during migration cannot be amended - What good is a online training log if changes cannot be made???

3) Shoes mileage are not tracked together with workouts - What good is a shoe tracker if you need to log the mileage separately???

4) Shoes mileage is shown in miles only - Enough said!!!

5) No readily available Total Training Log - *Faint*

6) Training Log reports cannot be longer than 7 days - *Faint* *Faint*

7) I am not going to try and find out more of what I CANNOT do with the training log.

Tried adding in all the missing workouts, but after 4 months, I give up. There are just too many missing entries.

Compound that to the useless interface that Active Trainer provided, I am going to give Cool Running a miss.

Running Ahead, please do not change your mode of operation. I am stuck with you.
