Hi

We get a lot of feedback from our members via email (overwhelmingly positive I must say!) which makes us very happy :) Thank you to everyone who takes the trouble to write to us, it does spur us on to know you are enjoying using the site as much as we are! But we don't have anywhere on the site (as yet) for other members and potential new members to see these.  So for the meanwhile if you would like to post any comments here we would love to see them.  We know there are a lot of you out there!!  Thanks :)

Would it be possible to add transition times to the multi-sport logs?  Thanks!

Hi Janice.  Thanks for your suggestion.  I'll look into, although the multi-sport log is quite complicated already so it won't be a quick one!

Hi Janice.  Actually it wasn't complicated at all!  I have added a short explanation to the page (you need to refresh the page to see this) but to add a transition time select 'other' from the activity list, add the time taken but leave the distance blank.  The transition time will be then added to the the total.  I hope that's ok.  Regards, Louise

Thanks Louise, that's great.  I'm doing my next tri on 12th June, so will see how it works.  (Makes me sound a seasoned triathloner - it's only my fourth, so still a novice at the game).  :-)

Good luck!  You've beaten me on the triathlon tally already :)

It would be great if GRG could automatically capture multisport events from devices that have this feature, rather than the need to manually enter them.

Would be good if the swim, bike and run distances then contribute to weekly totals. I guess several members now use devices like the 920XT and also engage in duathlons and triathlons.

Garmin connect manages to do this, so hopefully this is possible.

Another suggestion.

As I use GRG to track runs and swims as well as runs (I love having this functionality) but would it be possible to add a bike tracker like the shoe tracker so can keep a an eye on bike mileage?

You could distinguish between Road, Mountain, Hybrid, TT, Road Racer etc

Would be good if the bike tracker could keep bike mileage totals, but also have the feature to add when a chain or groupset is changed so users can track the mileage on those and when they might need replacing.

Hi Michael

Yes I agree it would be good it it came through automatically.  At the moment this isn't supported, but will keep an eye on it and see if this becomes available.  But, the totals from the triathlons when entered manually already come through to the weekly total.

 

Better news re: the bike tracker, this is in the pipeline for our next development.  We have a few necessary 'behind the scenes' changes and a couple of glitches to iron out  first and will then get on with this.  Another request has been for better analysis of swimming stats, so this will hopefully also be fairly soon.

Hi Louise

You know I love the site as is and I think it provides fantastic value for money. The only suggested improvement is could we perhaps have a perceived effort pick list field on the run log screen?

Most standard PE scales seem to operate from 1 to 10 and I just think this would be a useful comparison value over time as PE can differ greatly from pace, time or age grade. I know this can be a little subjective but it may make a great addition to some of the existing analysis tools. Does that make sense? Let me know if you need any more info.
