WARNING! WARNING! BACK UP YOUR LOG!

Here is the notice on the CR Running Log Page:

We're moving to Active Trainer!
Our Running Log is moving to Active Trainer's Online Training Calendar in August!

With Active Trainer, you'll receive 24/7 online access to a robust suite of online training tools, an easy-to-use calendar, detailed training reports, and daily training reminders. We'll also move your logged data from the Cool Running log to Active Trainer.

Sounds like trouble to me.

This has been a free Public Service Announcement.

Re: WARNING! WARNING! BACK UP YOUR LOG!
Go to your log and click on tools. Follow the prompt to "Click Here". It'll prompt you to save it as a .cgi document, but I change it to an Excel Spreadsheet - there are probably other ways to save it as well. But at least you'll have the data.

Re: WARNING! WARNING! BACK UP YOUR LOG!
Barb - You probably go straight to your log from your welcome page/home page. If you meander through the steps (go to Resources, go to Log), you should see it.

OK so far, I no like. They have crosstraining as a category but there is no way to put in what the crosstraining was. Also, they have training plans.....................that they want you to pay for!!!!
That right there put me off, what if they later decide they want you to pay for your log too.

Some of you that only run and bike and weight train may like it, the log is pretty detailed.
If you don't have an account at Active I suggest you go get one and see if you like it NOW

Anyone finding alternative logs please post them. I think Kickrunners was working on one, I will check on that.
