Keeping track of my athletic trainings

I am inspired by this article published in Runner's world: "Running Log Power". This article is about the author's experience in using a running log.

I have been using an online training log (which allows me to record my swim bike run trainings) since 2007. I must say it is not easy to kick start the habit of recording my trainings every time but with the advancement of technology and popularisation of facebook, it is now so convenient to update my log.

I think the best part of having a log is the joy of reviewing my past training records. I have about 2 years of data in my training log book now and it is fun to look at my line graph showing the distance clocked for each activities by weeks. I can tell when did I slack for too long and feel good about clocking more time on training in a week. The data allows me to keep track, analyze and stay motivated in my training.
