  1. Hi,

    I've written an application which takes my Garmin Forerunner 201 history
    file and creates a webpage from the data. The webpage contains stats
    for the entire run, per lap, an altitude graph, pace graph and speed
    graph, but the cool part is it uses googles map utility to trace the
    path you ran on a real map with all of the gmap features (satelite view,
    scrolling, zooming, etc..).

    You can see a sample page of one of my runs at:
    http://www.geocities.com/bruno_lacroix1234/garmin_gmap_example.html?200524

    Anyhow, I'd like to get peoples suggestions on what to improve and
    possibly how to do it (I'm not an html or javascript guy, so if you are
    I'd like your suggestions).

    In order to get your suggestions, I'm willing to take your history file
    and generate the web pages for you. If you dont have a website, you can
    still see all of the data except the google map (which is the best
    part). If your comfortable with seting up your own website, then do so
    and give me the gmap key which I should use in your pages. If you have
    no idea what I'm talking about, then I can place ONE of your runs on my
    own site for you to see (but I'll remove it once I need the space). If
    you want a free website, there's a few places available on the web, but
    the one I'm using for this is geocities, its really easy to setup.
    Also, you'll need a

    Although all of the work is done by the application, I still have to
    take your file, run it through the app, take the generated pages and
    send them back to you, so I'm only going to do this for a couple of
    weeks. Please do NOT send me your file after that (lets say after sept 15).

    Probably the best we to do it is for you to send me your history file by
    email ([email hidden]) and I'll send you back the generated
    pages. You can create the history file by uploading your garming data
    into the garmin training software, under "file", there's an export
    history option.

    Oh yeah, dont forget to tell me what you like, dislike and any
    suggestions you may have.

    Of course, if your willing to just suggest changes, then I'm all ears ;-)
