I've only just started trying out RunningAHEAD.com, but it seems like a nice site. It has some of the best reporting and analytics I've seen in a web site (see images below). The ability to output the data to Excel gives extra flexibility. It also has a Facebook application that allows you to add a tab to your Facebook page showing your workouts as well as allowing posting of workouts to Facebook. (At the time of writing the app is hard to find - search for it on Facebook, not RunningAHEAD.com)

I've only just started trying out RunningAHEAD.com, but it seems like a nice site. It has some of the best reporting and analytics I've seen in a web site (see images below). The ability to output the data to Excel gives extra flexibility. It also has a Facebook application that allows you to add a tab to your Facebook page showing your workouts as well as allowing posting of workouts to Facebook. (At the time of writing the app is hard to find - search for it on Facebook, not RunningAHEAD.com)
