DailyMile: Social training and racing for runners, triathletes, and cyclists.

I discovered the DailyMile widget on Caleb Keiter’s blog yesterday and think it is a very cool social tool for training, which seems to be a rather lonely exercise for most of my friends.

You can get training answers, can train with your friends, meet people in your area and find races. I loved watching James’ triathlons. (Note the “watching” part.) And I think the summer boys should get onto this tool and train together. Where’s the race this year? What happened to the boys’ weekends? The fishing? The racing? The sunburns?

Looks fun. So fun I might consider running ... maybe across the street to get some nachos. Can this thing track calories?

I love it. I AdHack it.

Hey, I know that guy! I do not know James or the Summer Boys but I think they should join up!

Best!

I would also suggest MapMyRun.com - you can use it map your run/walk/cycle routes and to share them if you want. You can keep a training-log which will calculate all kinds of stuff for you (average pace, calories burned etc)… Don’t know if they have a widget though… wink
