Hi there, fellow runner. Today's agenda will consist of few tips on setting down all your misstated thoughts on running and trainings in one clean and accessible document. If I were short, I might just call it your running log or sport dairy. And it is one of few key points on your way from newbie runner to professional grade athlete. Just follow these simple advices and fell free to get advantage.
Few years ago when I wrote tips for novice athletes like you, I imagined paper notebook with tables and all that writing carp around. Today's issue is about modern ways of note-taking. A bit techy or geeky a little, it does not matter how you will call it, the min idea is easy to get. You should use one of free blogging platform or maybe some cloud based service for editing documents like tables, mind Microsoft or Google solution. There are few benefits. First one is about accessibility. So you can load web page right with your smartphone's browser just after training and fill in few fields. Second benefit is about cost: you pay nothing for this neither in money, nor in time or weight in your backpack.
You can achieve goals and of course set them with running log, create some sort of table like one you create for planning your expenses and fill in fields for some amount of time -- you can gather statistics or make plans for future weather it;s time for you to participate in races or not. As for me, I am lazy one and use android apps like endomondo or other of the kind. The choice is yours. You can always add some info from sport tracker to your classic table look alike running log or have just information from the application or even go old-school and fill in all cells manually.
There are always more benefits, but you should find out what really matters for you and feel free to leave some comments. Completely yours, runplusdesign.com
