If you have Excel than you can try the log this guy created:


http://www.davidhays.net/running/runlog/runlog.html


Click on "Download"

It uses macros so you will be asked to enable them (possible risk of
viruses etc). I did this earlier in 2004 and had no problems so I doubt
you need to worry about it.

Hey, I'm doing that, too. (Using MySQL + PHP + Apache for the geeks among
us) Partly for fun, and 'cause it will do just what I want. I'm also
tracking elevation gain/loss, in addition to other stuff. I'd just been
keeping a text blob heretofore.

I'm writing it now, inspired by the www.coolrunning.com online running log,
which isn't half bad.

IIRC, that's what he was using (well at least MySQL/Apache. Don't know what
language, might have been perl)

For the group, the Serpentine Running Club (UK) has a nice spread sheet log
that I have used over the years. You can check them out at:

Donovans looks good though, thanks for the post\

I see the URL and will look but since you have used both how do the
compare?

There's your problem! You need more roughage in your diet.

For a given day,

enter milage for workout 1 in column C
enter the shoe number for workout 1 in column D. The shoe number
corresponds to the number in the shoe sheet.

enter the comment for workout 1 in column G

In the shoe sheet, replace the "name" field of shoe 1 (row 2, col A) with
one of your pairs of shoes (e.g. Asics 2090). Put the milage you've
already got on that shoe in the "last year" column (row 3, col A). Repeat
this for other pairs of shoes. Repeat this for all other shoes. For
example, if you have a pair of DS trainers, put those in col B on the
shoe sheet.

So now if you do a workout using your Asics 2090, you should put '1' in
the shoe column for that workout, but if you use the DS Trainer, you should
put '2' in the shoe column.

If you do another workout, do the same in columnds E,F,H for
workout 2.

HTH.

that all seems simple, so my problem must reflect my computer illiteracy.

I open the file with excel and I see an incompatible format window, I
close that by clicking ok, and I see a spreadsheet with a bunch of
symbols all over it.

It's compressed. Try uncompressing it first with a compression tool. Start
here: http://www.gzip.org/

Well, Thinnmann uses a tab for each month which I kind of like and has the dates preset so you just log the type of run,
time and distance. It has room for 2 runs per day. It track shoe mileage and there are 2 pages for mileage totals. One
is a graph and one a column.

I just started using Logrun.xls but so far it seems to be a bit more complete adding heart rate to the equations.
Although I don't track my HR, Maybe I'll start now.
You enter a date, distance,time and HR and it gives %HR, pace/mile week to date, month to date and year to date mileage.
The tabs are set up for Training Plans, Totals per Month, Totals per Week, 30 day totals(graph), 7 day totals(graph),
Around the World graph, weight and weight graph, race history a running calculator page and a few others I haven't
looked at yet.

Best thing to do is download and play with them for a while.
