and possibly this and/or this.

Also, yes, that Kein guy is gross!

I don't really run (to many knee surgeries) anymore so kinda useless for me. I was looking at this though..

don't let the name fool you. It tracks/logs more than just running. Pretty much any activity under the sun. I track running, swimming, cycling, walking, figure skating, weights, etc.

Garmin works too. If you're really serious you can get the 910xt which can count swim laps. I have a lot of friends using the garmin and they still import their garmin data into runkeeper because RunKeeper is more fun :-)

Still out of running. I'm getting in some sprint intervals though, and haven't been logging my bike. Most of my work is in the gym now.

I'll log my track workouts so you can heckle me, ok?? :razz:

If it ain't on RunKeeper (for me to heckle) it didn't happen!

Seriously, even the Skimmer King is laying down some miles these days. I think I may have even spotted Muck but I can't be certain. It went by so fast..

Well ,to be honest, I'm in better shape now having 6 months off of running. But I do miss it, so hopefully by summer I can get back some miles. I've been doing 200m sprints on the track and the foot is holding up for that, so I might try some easy runs soon. And my new tires should be in this weekend, so bike miles are coming. Primary goal right now is hitting 8% BF and benching 285 by Sept.
