Still more problems in Coach...

Right... Now only a few runs are showing up in the Coach section including a run that I haven't done yet today. All prior runs have vanished, except for the run I did on the first day. My confidence in this site is declining. How is it that the data from the 'runs' section isn't the same data for 'coach'!?

Runs showing on wrong days.

My runs are suddenly showing up a day off. They're all turning up for the day after. I now have a 5k run logged that I did tomorrow. This was working fine until today.

Oh... This was finally working for me... But from my experience with the coach fixing then breaking again, I'm hoping it stays that way...

Agreed - this isn't actually a fix. It might be a temporary work around, but considering the site seems to be getting more and more problems (seriously, where did the kilometer support go? It was on the new site six weeks ago.) having a several month work around to access a 12 week program is asking a little much.

Having worked in software for several years, it looks like they put their money behind branding the site, but didn't back that up with meaningful scale and environment (OS and browser version) testing. I'm surprised by the steps back in functionality, which suggests they're migrating from one architecture to another. Flash just isn't that hard to fix...

And if the problem is coming from the architecture change, that's fine - but some messages on the site about what they're doing would have reduced the impact on their customers...

It also doesn't work with Safari.

Agreed - I started a program last week and now I can't access it. It's completely annoying.

Love the detail on the run!

Really like the new look & feel. Love the detailed run chart.

Improve kilometer support.

The coach programs should be rewritten to favor kilometers. The graduations are more precise and therefore better, especially for beginners. If the standard race distances are in kilometers, so to should the training.

Improve friend find

Improve your methods for finding people one knows. I have tried searching by friends names, user names, email addresses and failed. I even tried responding to an invite one sent me which brought me to a blank page.

Is there any ETA for a fix?
