Product Description:

Runner's Log is an application for runners, joggers and walkers to track workouts in Mac OS X. Whether you're a new or experienced runner, it's easy to create an exercise journal and personalize it with your own notes and comments.

Runner's Log ReviewShows Promise - Version: 1.0.1, 5/27/2007 08:07AM PST

I have tried a number of programs to help me track and evaluate my running. The perfect one for still does not exist.

Runner's Log is a nice start, and it has some interesting features. It's a 1.0 release (1.0.1, actually), and it could be interesting to see it mature.

Here are some quick suggestions: (1) When displaying the run totals in the main window, I would prefer to see the time displayed as (hours), minutes and seconds, and not in decimal values (for example, 57:45 rather than 57.75). (2) I would also like to see a shortcut key for "next/previous lap" in the entry screen. When entering laps it's a hindrance to have to take my fingers off the keyboard to click the arrow key to move to the next lap.

Since I use a Garmin when I run, it would be nice if this program supported importing Garmin data (it supports importing iPod Stopwatch data). But I know that's asking a lot...

The unlicensed version only allows for 10 entries. I'm not sure that's enough to give me sufficient criteria to evaluate the product, and I think US $19.95 may be a little steep for this program (iRun 1.3.2 and TrackRunner are free).

But it's a nice start. I give it three and 1/2 stars.
