Guest Passwords Not Working?

I've got my running log set with a guest password, but when I try to log in with that password, I get the "sorry, you have the wrong password" page. Anyone know what's going on?

Hi

We do not have guest passwords. Your emailed password is permanent until you change it. One thing to remember is that the password is case sensitive.

Hope this helps.

So the whole "enter a password for your coach" dealie in the runner's log doesn't work? Or am I missing something (like a brain)? :P

This:

Share Your Stats

Share your progress with coaches, friends and other runners. When other runners sign into your account using your member name and the sharing password below, they can read your log but cannot make any changes to it.

Yes, I want to share my running log.

The Cool Running Log does let you share your running log with others, allowing them to browse your stats in read-only mode so that they can see your entire log but cannot add or edit any workouts.

To do this, go to your running log preferences by clicking the "preferences" link at the top of the yellow section of your running log. At the top of the preferences page, there's an option to set a "sharing password." Select a password that is different from your account password, and click the "Save my preferences" button at the bottom of the page.

From here, you have several options for allowing your friends to view your running log:

1) E-mail an invitation and sharing link to friends.
After setting up your sharing password, click the "Share your stats" link at the top of the yellow section of most running log pages. Fill out the form, and an e-mail will be sent to your friend's e-mail with a link letting him/her view your read-only running log.

2) Invite friends to sign in to your read-only log.
Your friends can go to the running log and sign in using your member name and your sharing password. They'll only be able to see the read-only version. To sign in, they can go here:
http://www.coolrunning.com/log/[/URL" target="_blank">

3) Post a link on a website or e-mail the link yourself
When you click the "share your stats" link mentioned above, the unique Web address of your read-only running log is displayed above the e-mail form. You can use that link to put into a personal webpage, or in your e-mail signature, or just to e-mail to someone.
