I just came across this Lifehacker post which references some virtual workout buddy websites. They look gym-oriented to me. I was wondering if anyone knows about virtual swim workout buddy options. (If there's nothing around, maybe we could put something together?)
Seems to me that our USMS Blogs & GTD are virtual buddies, are they not? I know that I sometimes will check the GTD to see how other women my are are doing & I frequently look at blogs to check their workouts & get ideas to motivate me. We even had a small but short lived group of people who logged in their holiday 5000's! IMO, there's no advantage to Lifehacker over what we've already got. Just sayin' :blah:
I use fitocracy.com personally to log all my running, lifting and swimming. I can definitely see it as having the potential as a virtual workout buddy for swimming! It has a fair amount of options for entering swimming workouts but it can definitely be improved. It would be cool to see a huge influx of swimmers to lead it that way.
