 Best of the Running Diaries December 21, 2007

I'm an adult onset runner (48 yrs old, 200 lbs) and started running in Sept 07. I had read Glover's "The Runner's Handbook" which is fantastic! After my 3rd month (when I got to running 3 miles 3-4 times a week) I decided to start a log. I had looked at a few others (Runner's World, Training for Mortals, etc.) and liked the setup of Glover's logbook the best.
It doesn't have set dates, so you can start using it in the middle of the year. Lots of great charts in the back. The log entries let you put in quite a lot of info as well as weekly summaries.
Well worth the money and a great motivator as you see your miles accumulate. I'm aiming for my first marathon in Apr 08!
Highly recommended
Great Log With Great Charts and Info December 9, 2004

My husband and I have been using this log for nine years. Two new logs are our annual new year's present to each other. One year he tried a different one, another year I tried a different one, but we both find this log to have the best format, charts, extra info, etc. If you don't keep a log, try it. You'll be amazed at how helpful and interesting it is to have a diary of your runs.
Best training diary on the market December 2, 2002

I'm now placing my order for my sixth consecutive yearly training diary. It's easy to use, attractively designed and there's plenty of room for recording your daily runs. I use all the charts in the back: the week-by-week mileage chart, the training mileage graph, record of races, pr chart. The pacing charts and race time comparison and predictor charts are indispensable (yes, you can find this info on the web, but it's great to have right here in the book for when you are traveling). Every runner should keep a log like this. It helps keep you motivated and see your progress.
Finally! December 15, 1999

Finally, a logbook that has charts for the slower runners of this world! Somebody finally realizes that not everybody runs a 9:00 minute mile! Thank you!
 A disappointing logbook, especially in its log design July 8, 1999

I was very disappointed with the Runner's Training Diary, particularly with the "log" portion of the book. The design seemed dated and too confining. I never had enough room to write much, and it was visually unpleasant with its boxes of various grey shadings for the different categories. I did find the articles and charts generally useful, but to me, the "log" portion is the heart of any logbook, and I ended up ditching my Training Diary and bought The Ultimate Runner's Journal, which was much more flexible, has a much "cleaner" design, great articles, and included color pictures to boot!
