For those of you who log your runs, what type of log do you use? Do you use paper logs, website, app, spreadsheet....what? I want to start logging and want the best system!

    Me too...although I'm not admitting to cheating, it's totally legit!

    I use RunKeeper app on my phone. Logging is a snap. I just jog with my phone which I use for music anyway. My route, pace, and time are all automatically logged.

    This is what I use too. Another plus for me is that it lets you map your runs and also includes the elevation run.

    I use my Nike+ app and my Polar HRM database on the web to keep track of my runs.

    I've been using Beginner Triathlete for years since I could log my bike and swim workouts too. But I really like Daily Mile and the route mapping tool.

    I use Runkeeper as well. It tracks your distance, elevation, route and pace and calcs your calories as well as allows you to listen to music at the same time. You are able to pre pick a route as well and they have recently introduced goals/achievments to keep you motivated. Using the app on my phone is the easiest way. Just turn it on and hit start and it does all the work for you.

    I did use Nike+ for a couple weeks but found it was wildly inaccurite if I was running under trees where the GPS signal wasn't great. It had me running a 1 minute mile...not that's not even possible!

    I'm kinda all over the place. I have a Garmin, so I use the Garmin Training Center and I upload my runs to Garmin online. I also use RunningAhead at www.runningahead.com.

    And, I joined a online community a couple years ago called DailyMile. Love love love DM! You can find it at www.dailymile.com.

    I bike and run. I've used Garmin Connect, Garmin Training Center, mapmyrun/ride, and Strava. I like Strava best followed by Garmin Connect. I know Strava has a good app because my friends use it, but I personally never have used it because I have a Garmin GPS and just upload the data from the GPS to the website.

    The Nike + Runner App is free and pretty nice. I keep wondering if the Nike+ Kinect trainer for XBox soon to come out will utilize the same online account.

    I am 65 years old have been doing jogging, running and bike riding outdoors for the last 15 to 20 yrs. I do it for excercise, health and generally try and keep in shape. Never work out in a gym. Live in the countyry. I would keep track of miles ran or walked. Any excercise adds up.. best of luck.

    Another vote for RunningAhead.com

    I upload directly from my Garmin to the site. It's the best on-line log out there and it's totally free. You can even go ad free with a small donation (something that would be nice to have on this site).
