Mastery is an excellent book. I wish I could remember which book had lead me to read Mastery.

One thing you may want to consider for an online joglog would be support for Garmin’s Forerunner product. Many runners really enjoy using this wristwatch style GPS to track there distance and speed. It comes with an application for logging but it also creates an xml formated file that can be used for various applications. One application that I particularly enjoy is plotting my run on aerial map as outlined on Engadget here, http://www.engadget.com/entry/0141583269424672/. As I travel, I like to record new routes where I run. I also find that toys like this (new shoes, heart monitor, etc) help keep me motivated in the plateau periods that Leonard discusses in his book.

Although slightly off topic, I am in the process of reading a great book that integrates running and spirituality in sort of a meditation/prayer exercise. Not everyones cup of tea but certainly interesting to some. It is by Roger Joslin and its titled “Running the Spiritual Path.”

Bren, you amaze me. How do you keep coming up with such great stuff. A jog-log… of course… why didn’t I think of that. I think that this will be a great tool for almost anyone who exercises. I like the daily aspect of it. After all… success begins today!

I had developed a very similar jog(b)log application about a year ago… then the offagain part of my running routine pulled me away from it. i should dust off that code…. hmm…
