DailyMile

Daily Mile is a cool little social site for all sorts of workouts. You can sync with Nike+ which is a plus, but no 'visual' view of your run. Manual inputs of workouts/runs can be done as well. This can also be synced with Facebook which is pretty cool. You can also 'share' challenges via email, weblink, Facebook, twitter, etc. Much easier than Nike+ for that. Viewing the challenges is a little easier too. The challenges are a LITTLE buggy from what I've seen so far. Joined a couple challenges where past runs for that month didn't show up. Kind of a downer for that.

Connect.Garmin.com

Connect.garmin.com is pretty easy to link with your Forerunner. Not to much to it, once all the drivers and software was installed. Could get confusing for some people who are intimidated by installations. Get a friend who is 'not afraid' of the internet if you feel overwhelmed.

There isn't a lot to this site, other than storing your information and being able to send some back. You can't 'create' a workout or course from here, but you can see other 'activities' that people have uploaded. REALLY easy to share the information once it's loaded in here too. There is a direct link to Facebook, which I like, and you can get the URL (or web address) of the activity by sending an email (puts the link right in the email).

I do love the 'Player' feature which allows you to replay your run (or other activity). Speed it up or slow it down and see your speed, pace, heart rate, etc. on your run. Click 'HERE' for one of my favorite 'courses'. As long as I don't delete this from Garmin Connect, it will always be here...
