BeginnerTriathlete is Closing

Dear BT,

 

I've spent the last month hoping a miracle would happen, but none did.

Instead, the costs of keeping the website running have actually increased.

 

Thanks to all of you who continued or increased your Performance Level membership to try to help. I've shut down credit card processing, so Performance Members will not be charged for any renewals from here on out.

 

Please download your training logs if you wish from your Settings screen. (See screenshot below.)

I know some of you have used your training logs as a personal journal for many years and are looking for a way to preserve that. The "Export Log Data" function exports as a data file containing your workout metrics and does include the text entries, but doesn't include photos and is formatted as a spreadsheet.

We are working on a system to convert a person's training log into a private WordPress blog on a shared site still hosted by me. This will take some programming time and some customer service time. If we can get at least five people willing to pay $500 each for this service, we can do these conversions. (There's a fixed cost to doing even one of them, and then an incremental costs for each one after that, but the fixed cost doesn't make sense unless we have at least five.) We have one person so far.

 

Please email [email protected] if you'd be willing to pay for a Training Log conversion. Also let me know (at the same email) if you have any questions. 

 

You've all been great and contributed so much to the community over the years ... many of you before I even became a member.

 

Take good care, keep the rubber side down, get your Time in The Saddle, ... all of that.

 

Regards,

Alice
