Very Frustrated Cool Runner


I'm frustrated by many of the lack of features in active's toolbox, such as the weekly, monthly, and yearly totals, not to mention the weight tracker. First, does anyone know when these are being addressed, and second, does anyone know any other websites that manage info like coolrunning did?


Thanks,

ScottyMac018

Scotty,

I know Active is very aware of the shortcomings of the log and are working like crazy on a new release. Sometime this month I understand it will be out and hopefully it will address some of the concerns you are having.

I'm sorry it took me so long to post this email but I had to first log in and then spend half an hour trying to get back to your question. Go to www.runningahead.com. They have a great log and it's WAP-enabled so that you can log your miles if you're on the road. Their forums are good as well. Plus you don't have to log in every time you go to the site.

Their forums are not that good. I ended up moving back.

I use the runningahead log and frequent the kickrunners forums. A lot of the old CR posters hang out over there and it's very active. It's a ghost town here. I only come back here occasionally out of morbid curiosity.

I enjoy both cross training and cross posting! I moved my log over to runningahead but prefer the Newbie Cafe posts here. Check out runningahead and see if it will suit your needs.
