Time to "Log Your Run!" Everyone

OK, I think we're rolling on the running logs and stats now. Check out the "Team Stats" in the right margin. If you click on the button that says "Log Your Run!" it should open up a Google Docs Spreadsheet. The first worksheet is the table for logging your runs.

Instructions for logging a run:

1. Make sure you're signed in to the spreadsheet (upper right "Sign In")
2. Go to the first empty row
3. Click in the first column and find your name in the drop down list.
4. Enter the number of miles you ran
5. Enter the number of minutes it took you
6. Enter the date of this run
7. Enter any comments you want, like where you ran, weather, or whatever. If it's that good, write a post!
8. Save the spreadsheet --click Save upper right (it often auto-saves)

Don't worry about getting the mileage and time exact. This is more for fun and to get a rough feel for how we're doing, how often we're running and what our average pace might be (race day pace is always faster!)

The second worksheet has a table showing totals and averages for the team. You can't edit this worksheet. The gadgets in the right margin of this blog pull data from this worksheet and display the pace in the "gauge" and the total miles and times we've logged.

Anyway, let's see how many miles and how many hours we can log before Hood To Coast!!

(Let me know if there are issues with the logging... I tried to grant everyone permissions to edit the spreadsheet.)
