Phil McCollam's dashboard

To be honest, I don't use the Nike+ system, but I've been using the schedules on the old training log for a few months (and a few months a couple years back). By not allowing runners to input their own mileage, a whole cross-section of non-iPod-owning individuals (or at least non Nike+ individuals) are missing out on what a great resource the Coach feature is.

It seems strange that a company that is supposed to have been built for and by athletes (amateur and professional) is turning an awesome training tool into a 'members only' club. True, some people will buy the system to be a part of the group, but I think Nike will also be turning a lot of people off by making it mandatory. It's a blatant attempt at milking more money from customers who just want to run.

No problem, lisa. According to other posts I've read from the team at Nike, there will (within the very near future) be a transition period where Nike will contact everyone who has a Nike Training Log account and explain how to move all of our data from this log to the new, Nike+ Coach.

When and how this will happen has yet to be officially determined (as far as I know). This discussion has been going on in a number of forums for a few weeks now, so hopefully Nike will stick to their plan of combining the old information with the new system. – Phil McCollam, on August 16, 2009 03:46

It looks like the log is still up for now; it's just not accessible through the website.
