Rating: ![2 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-2-0.gif) Summary: This is a journal, nothing more, Review: As the title of the book suggests, this is simply a journal for you to record your daily runs, some info about your races and times, and your shoe history. Each page lists space to record info for 3 days of running, and has a quote about running or a tip off to the side. While the tips are helpful for new runners, and the book might be a nice motivational fctor, there is really nothing here that you can't find off the Internet by typing in "running tips" in a search engine. If you don't have Internet access, it would be a decent book, but Runners World's own web site (and many other sites) has a much more comprehensive online training journal that can not only log your runs, shoes, and routes, but provide detailed reports and graphs as well. The price of the book is low enough so that it's not really a bad deal, just a little behind the times. After all, the majority of the book IS blank paper.

Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: Keep a log now, because you'll never remember later! Review: This is a great training journal! Not only does it have a space to record daily run info, but it has little tips and fun facts on every page. For each day, there is a space to fill in the route you took, distance and time, any cross-training you did, how you felt, and thoughts. At the end of the week, there is a place to record your weekly total miles of running, and your total milage to date. There are 52 weeks of log space in this journal. Start recording your milage, feelings, and thoughts now... you will benefit from it in the future... and it may even give you some laughs to see how you felt starting out.
