Summary: Best on the market
Review: I buy one of these for my husband every year. It's one of his favorite Christmas presents because it lasts all year long. I'll continue to buy him one each year until he quits running, which I'm sure he'll never do.

Summary: Drop the Days of the Week
Review: I guess I'm being picky. Okay I know Sunday is really the first day of the week but for those of us tracking miles by week (especially important for building your bases so you don't over do it) you usually can't break the weekend apart. Sometimes due to your time schedule you can train long on Saturday and sometimes you have to do it on Sunday. Let's say your building for a marathon. You do 5 - five milers during the week and a 15 mile run on Sunday. Next week you do the same but have to do the 15 on Saturday. According to the book you did 25 miles one week and 55 miles the next. How's that for tracking weekly miles? The better training log's leave the days of the week blank so you can fill it in. And yes I know you could always cross out the days of the week in this log and rewrite it but why should you have to?

Summary: Just began and loving it!
Review: I have just started to use this training diary, my 4th week, and it is wonderful.
The feature I enjoy the most of all in the weekly entries is the amount of space available to write on each day's workout and performance! Plus, the daily weight recording area is big enough to include your body fat percentage too. The summary space is perfect for any comments that you have for that week's runs.
This is my first bought training journal, and I look forward to filling it up!

Summary: The most practical training diary on the market!
Review: I have used training diaries for almost ten years, and have experimented with a variety of publications. This is simply the best one out there. Each week (non-dated ... that's a plus) has the seven days blocked out with plenty of room to record your workout in detail. There is a box at the end of each week to summarize the week's workouts. It contains space to keep track of your long runs, weekly, monthly and yearly totals, morning pulse, and weight. In the back there are charts to maintain race performance and PR's. A glossary of running terms is included, with other health and training tips thrown in for good measure.
I'm on my twelfth "Runners World Training diary" in the last six years. Invaluable!

Summary: Great Tool
Review: I started running about 4 months before I bought this Training Diary - and now I wish that I'd started keeping the diary as soon as I started running. I find it a useful motivational tool - if I've set myself a goal for the week and don't feel like running one day, I look at my goal and know how disappointed I'll be at the end of the week if I don't achieve my goal. Therefore I go for a run!

Summary: Spiral Bound
Review: One of the main reasons I like this diary so much is that it is spiral bound. You can't tell from the Amazon photo. So I keep it open to the week I'm running in to make entries quick.
I have been keeping track of my runs for 5 years with these diaries - they have enough room in them for one year of dates and comments. The comments area for each day gives you enough room for a few sentences.
For me, a casual runner/10K'er who does about 500 miles a year, I feel that keeping a diary has kept me going. It is alarming to see that I already can't go as fast as I used to, but I've run a total of more miles each year. The used/resold versions are only a few bucks.

Summary: Very good log for tracking your progress
Review: This is a non-dated (it has no months or dates) spiral-bound notebook with enough space for recording 1 year's worth of entries for tracking your runs. All runners should keep a log of their runs and record such things as weather, distance, pace, day, clothing, route, and general comments with a weekly summary. This book allows you to do that, and also provides you with inspirational phrases and quotes and tips for improving your run and avoiding injuries. Because it's spiral-bound, you can lay it flat on a desk and write with one hand while the other hand holds a banana or sports drink. I've only see one other log that's as good as this one - John Cronin's log book which contains more photos, which aid in positive imaging for those who know sports psychology. This is my first log and I've been running consistently for 9 months, but only started keeping a log last month. Already I can look back at last month's times and routes and see an improvement. If I didn't have a log, I'd never have picked up on some of the smaller details of my old runs.

Summary: RUNNER'S WORLD TRAINING DIARY - A training friend for life!
Review: This training log has been a friend for 21 years! Through those early years of jogging and dieting; those middle years of being a weekend road racing warrior; and now, the joys of recreational running for fun. Keeping a log has helped me stay faithful to the sport I enjoy. This running log is preprinted with the days of the week across each two open pages, starting with Sunday, but is undated with regard to day and month. There are fields for such things as daily weather conditions, as well as your daily conditions (pounds and pulse rate), and it also has a section for keeping track of your 'racing results'. There is a 'quick diary' section at the beginning of the log to keep track of a year's worth of miles on two pages. Through thick and thin (skinny and fat), and slow and fast (lots of PR's, no more PR's), this diary has been a constant companion. I think it has the ease of use and flexibility to help new runners stay focused on the sport, while keeping seasoned runners knee deep in the training information that they need to stay fast and competitive.
