Since revising his training programme and reviewing his work-life balance in late 2009 (and as described in the this blog), Grumpy Bob has coupled his use of the Polar CS600X HRM/Power computer with the very excellent Golden Cheetah software package. The attraction of Golden Cheetah as far as Grumpy Bob's concerned is that it's (a) open source; (b) has an active group developers (which means relatively frequent updates), and (c) it's available for MacOSX, Windows and most importantly from Grumpy Bob's perspective, Linux. Screenshots are available here (though perhaps not from the most recent build).
In a recent message through the Golden Cheetah mailing list, Grumpy Bob became aware of two new websites related to Golden Cheetah.
Firstly, one of the (and possibly the lead) developer Mark Liversedge has a GC related blog, 40 Goals. Posts there very often reveal new and/or upcoming developments and features for Golden Cheetah.
Secondly, Golden Cheetah - Windows/Linux Development Builds provides pre-built executables for Windows and Linux (32 bit). These are based on recent snapshots - Grumpy Bob's pleased to see some of the newer features there.
