Infinite possibilties. OTHER LOGS are seriously more limited in the graphing department...try them...you will see. Graphing is important as it is much easier to spot trends in training rather than a listing.
• Calendar View - A great view that can be the default view over the blog. Allows you to see the entire current month with run, bike and swim data with weekly and month summations BUT WITHOUT the comments. Will also display icons for races, strength, nutrition and sports data for a particular day.

  • Your race gets listed in the forum to get discussed (should you choose).
  • Lists all of your races on one list so they are easy to find and edit.
  • Integrates with blog and calendar view - your races will automatically be displayed as an icon or shaded box with a hyperlink in your calendar or blog view - total integration.
  • Easy to get race lists for other members...either through their discussion posts or '10 most recent race logs' or through veiwing their BLOG.
  • You don't have to use the training logs to use this feature.
• RaceFinder...Pretty cool feature here people! This will be a searchable form to look for races that fit your search terms. This will get the data from EVERYONES 'Your Races' data. This is a 'historical' database...only for races already done. BUT this will display general features on that race plus an evaluation of the organization hosting it. The data served up will be linked to the specific individuals who ran that race and you will be able to see their full race report. THIS WILL BE A POWERFUL FEATURE once we get a lot of races in. This will allow you to better pick your races for the next year based on peoples race reports who already ran them OR be able to better prepare for a race by reading others reports. Example: can do a general search for 'Australia - Duathlons' or get advanced such as 'Australia - Melbourne - Triathlons - Olympic - August 2002'
