How does this look to you?  Or, let me rephrase the question?  How does this look to you in comparison to a stinky gym, weight training room or cinder running track?

 Let’s call a spade a spade here … your trusty correspondent is about as athletic as a rock.  he is also not much of a cell phone “gimmick” freak.

I am, though, a great believer in doing smart things with technology, and this idea is a smart one.  SportsDo is online software that takes “readings” of tour current activity from your GPS-equipped mobile phone and tracks your performance, and that of anyone else who’s using SportsDo on attractive performance screens.

The uses for this puppy seem even more to me than the ones the developers list. 

A track coach can remotely watch the training of his whole team, making sure they don’t over or under-train and that they practice in safe areas during hours the coach has specified.

Perhaps a track star from college wants to keep competing with some of her sister runners after graduation and jobs have separated them?  Absolutely no problem, they can easily organize their own intramural competitions no matter where their careers have taken them.

How about preliminary screening for a big athletic event?  Do we need to send hundreds of “also ran’s’ by bus, train or plane, or can the organizers use SportsDo to weed out the poor performers and even find those in tiny schools that hadn’t been noticed yet?
