As I entered my yardage in my Fitness Log today, I noticed that we are 20% through the year. I also noticed that I’m about 10 miles behind my goal pace. My new mini goal is to get back on pace by the end of March… I want that Nike draw string bag!!!
I’m finding that having a Goal and the annoying reminder “You'll need to pick up the pace to achieve your goal this year:” is actually working to get me to the pool on days that I would in the past have skipped.
How about you?
Great ideas! For those who think the current incarnation "nags" too much I'd add the Stuart Smalley mode.
I don't want a Stuart Smalley mode. I guess people didn't understand my explanation about the current mode (or these responses are completely tongue-in-cheek and nobody really wants Jim to implement any of them). When you have a huge hole in your yardage for whatever reason, continuing to average it in, even after it's long in the past, makes the nag pretty useless, because it's not properly weighting more recent activity.

WoooHOOO! I'm 12 miles ahead of my goal of 400 miles for the year. :bliss:
Maybe we need an Elaine mode. If you're not at least as far ahead of your goal as she is ahead of hers, your entire FLOG interface is rendered in blue Comic Sans font, and smilies run across the screen. :D
