 Posted: 12/12/02 - 08:20 Post subject: Keeping running logs.
I've been keeping a running log for about a year and a half now. I keep my running miles and my walking miles seperate. I don't walk often but some days  Do you all keep them separate? I also do not count the walking miles on my shoes. Just curious to know what everyone else does.

I've got one program that I use for logging everything. Lifting, swimming, cycling and running (and even some walking). It's pretty detailed but I have a hard time getting the graphs to work right. I mainly use it for the logging features so I can get a general overview of my training and I've started using the Excel log from a different thread here for running only. For the most part, I like the way that it graphs things and shows progress.
I'd like to find one or write my own for tracking lifting progress, but I haven't found one yet.

Hey! Try www.crosstrak.com It has the ability to keep track of a bunch of different activities, including lifting (and cross-country skiing, for goodness sakes!)
I like the one that Shelee showed us better since it's easier to input stuff, so I just made copies, one for swimming and one for biking.
A, I don't track my walking either. I probably should, at least on my shoes since it IS wear and tear, but I think it's that whole mental thing of being a runner and walking doesn't really count. (Was that hateful?) But yes, I keep everything separate because I'm extremely anal-retentive that way.

I track all of my running miles, crunches, and weight workouts in my CR log.
If I do a long walk or get up at 6:00 am to do aerobics for 10 MC points, then I usually just list that in the Comments section for that day.
akern, I heard that you shouldn't walk in your running shoes. Run in them only. That is because your foot has a different shape when you run. It was suggested that you use your old running shoes or a completely different pair of shoes for walking/aerobics/ass kicking/darts.

I do not factor walking into the equation.
I do keep seperate tabs for my cycling and running though.
