Don't leave Walter!!! It is hard to keep up with 2 logs, good luck and I hope you decide to stay with the FRB.

Why the move to the Daily mile?

From Walter on Tue, Apr 12, 2011 at 21:14:19 from 24.2.66.36

Its impossible to log on here on my phone. Plus Sasha needs to hook this up to Facebook or he will be out of the loop soon.

I have actually talked to Sasha about hooking him up with one of my friends who writes iPhone and Androids apps for the Church. Send him a PM that we need an iPhone App and I'll approach him again. It would be really cool if it could talk to Garmin Connect as well.

Rob yes I like the Garmin link also and the ease of blogging since my phone is linked 24/7 to Facebook. I never get responses back from Sasha. I'm still waiting for 2 of them from a year ago on my daughters issues on here. They like how easy daily mile is. That's what makes ipods and Facebook so popular. Ease and support.

I forgot to mention that my "friend" is Carinas' husband. So maybe she is the one we need to bug :)

From Walter on Tue, Apr 12, 2011 at 23:41:12 from 24.2.66.36

Rob, I wouldnt bug her right now. She is a nervous wreck about Boston. If you live close enough I would get her a small brown paper bag and have her sit down and breathe in it. Im the same way. Pre race jitters.

From Rob on Tue, Apr 12, 2011 at 23:50:17 from 72.254.85.210

Carina and my wife are friends so I guess Carina has been going off on how nervous she is, so I had to hear from my wife this morning how stupid us "runners" are, and why do we put this self-inflicted pain and anguish on ourselves.

Hummm, I didn't have a good answer!!

From Walter on Tue, Apr 12, 2011 at 23:53:43 from 24.2.66.36

Tell your wife to start running and competing. lol We are a very bizarre people. However have you talked to an Ironman athlete, we are very normal next to them.
