The first season I did Run Across America, it workes great. Now there's no good & easy way to see my runs, just a cumulation of my miles. It also isn't updating with my most recent run. The design is not intuitive an honestly frustrates me more to use it than just run without it. Bums me out because I like the idea of Run Across America.

Landscape only? Why not have a portrait mode like they used to? Makes looking around the site harder and logging information difficult because the keyboard covers up the screen. Also while running, you can't take a quick peek at the screen because it's the terrible zoomed in landscape mode. I like the programs but it's not user friendly anymore. And no, it's not just my phone - everyone is dropping out because it's frustrating
