Simon - not sure what to do about your dilemma... maybe you could open a second "secret" account where you log your planned trails - although I can't imagine hashers cheating - it's not like they want to get to the bar early? :)

Aristos - no worries - I do also want to add some more analysis - including distance markers - to the activity maps too.

On the twitter link, is it possible to get it to tinyurl (or something similar) the link back to runsaturday?

Actually... I think your "something similar" has just given me a fab idea :) Will look into changing the links to thinks like http://www.runsat.com/a/####### - added to the list.

Thanks Foggy (did you enjoy the tdf?)

Great site.
I just have two requests.

1. Use maps as the default style setting or allow the default style setting to be saved. The current hybrid default style can take a long time to load especially on mobile devices.

2. When viewing a run and not in editing mode (not owner), hide the route entry dots. This can overwhelm the map especially if it was drawn in freehand or on some maps like trail runs that do not follow the road that loaded from a gps device.

Keep up the great work. Everyone I've shown this site to thinks it's the best.

How about a "search by route" facility.

I like to compare how I'm doing over the same route sometimes....

Two requests:

1. The possibility to add your heartrate in rest to the Health Page

2. Possibility to add a own parameter to a training. I use for example the self-calculated number "Heartrate/Kilometer" as a guide for my growth in condition. I would like to add these to all my trainings and have a graph with it. But I can imagine this is hard to program because it should be extremely flexible...

Actually Farnie's asked for 1 before and I've done most of the work - so this will magically appear soon.

On 2, that's an interesting idea... not going to happen as quickly as 1, but I'll think about it some more. What other parameters would people like to add? And do you want to chart them?

I use two self made parameters: one is the heartbeats/km and the other one is a self-made formula to assess the toughness of a track. It is simply saying that every kilometer with a certain percentage of hills will be calculated more than a flat kilometer. This is nice to compare Alpe d'Huez with the Mont Ventoux.... BigGrin

Another thing what would be great is something I found on Slowgeek.com (http://www.slowgeek.com/pr/80527821). This site automatically finds weatherdata from the internet and imports that on the page.

Here a little information from his FAQ-page

Quote:
Q:Cool weather data and images, where'd you get it/them?
A:The weather data comes from Weather Underground and the weather icons you see on the run charts are (c) 2003 by Stardock Corporation and used with permission according to these terms.

Q:Why don't my run graphs have weather data?
A:There are three levels of missing data. First, the system may not have gotten around to finding your nearest weather station. If you are very new, wait 24 hours and check again. Second, the system may have tried and failed to find it. All it has to go by is the city, state and country information from your public Nike+ profile. Make sure that is somewhat accurate and spelled correctly. Or third, the weather station assigned that was found isn't working or is providing incomplete data. There will be a mechanism for you to fix this yourself eventually, but for now you can email rasmus@slowgeek.com and I can fix it for you.


Hopefully I don't overthrow you with nice idea's... ;)

We do actually check weather underground for weather conditions at the moment... but it's proven to be rather slow and unreliable for historical data.

I'll add it to the list to look at again - one suggestion I did like the look of was to try to limit the search to airport based weather stations rather than just using any old weather station - many of wunderground's stations are just individuals who've set up their own boxes in the garden - so many of them only have part functionality - but the airports all seemed to have much more full functions.

me again.....
I can't remember what you said about multisport? (got to rush to work so can't read back)

I did a bike run bike yesterday and would prefer to log it as all one activity. I know you said that you prefer to have allyour bikes in one place, so is there a way to choose.

So when you up load you can choose which to upload and if they are on the same day/sameish time you have the option to put them together?

I'm learning to love this site so great job guys. I would like to be able to input things manually - when I go to the gym I don't take my garmin but I like to keep everything together and see it on the "calendar" (which I hear is coming soon). Also, maybe there's a way to do it and I haven't figured it out yet, but I would love to be able to sort things on the home page. Ergo, I live in the US and would like to be able to have a default to see what people are doing here and even in my state. I'm new to my area and would like to be able to find some fellow runner and bikers here. It would be nice to search other countries when needed or wanted but a default would be helpful to me.

Thanks!
Michelle

Absolutely brilliant ideas there, Michelle ThumbsUp

At the moment there is some of this functionality - on http://www.runsaturday.com/Explore/Everyone leading to http://www.runsaturday.com/Explore/Everyone/CountryCode/US

- but this needs bringing out more into the home page - and it would be nice to organise it a bit differently - we'll get that rolling real soon :)

Thanks again - love it Dancing
