Hi Eric,
Any chance this feature is coming soon? I have a bunch of fellow runner friends who I've been telling about this site. I think once they get on, this would be the best new feature.
2015 Goal:For now, keep running!
Fast is better than long
The log owner should probably get some mechanism to remove undesired comments.
2017 Goals: Give up goals; they're stoopid
Give a man a fire and he'll be warm the rest of the night;Set a man afire and he'll be warm the rest of his life.
What in the Jehu?
not bad for mile 25
Or the comments come to the owner privately until s/he approves them.
Or, maybe have this feature combined with a friends feature that allows only friends that you've added to comment on each other's workouts. My current group of running friends are using Google spreadsheets and we are commenting on each other's workouts, mostly with inspiring thoughts, and it's really been a big motivator for everyone. I would love to be able to do that here.
Feeling the growl again
I think this would be a nice feature...I'd actually dislike if it was limited to some sort of "friends" list (which seems cumbersome for Eric to create)...ability to erase specific comments would be ideal though.

Yes. Or require the owner of the log to 'approve' the comments before they become publicly viewable.
I have to agree with everyone's desire to have this feature added to the site. I would LOVE to have my friends be able to post some motivational comments to help keep each other moving towards our goals.
While some of my friends use this site, we have to maintain another site too. The only reason we have the other site is in order to comment on each others progress.
This site is already excellent, but having the ability to comment would take it over the top as the best site (a one-stop shop) for all of our training log needs!
2012 Goals:
I use that other website, to log my runs. The comments on workouts is a great feature.
RA has the better forum section, plus mapping (one of the 1st reasons I started using RA).

So, from what it looks like, you want eric to rebuild Facebook for you.
Sound close?

Maybe it's just me but I have no interest in this. I can see my log becoming just another extension of messaging. We already have the forums and private messaging. I don't want to deal with the clutter (not that anyone would comment on my lack of training these days).
Eric, if you add this feature please allow for the ability to disable it.
Not at it at all.

huh? zero interest in a facebook clone. (I only created one because of the DW, and look at it once every 6 months, maybe)
Doesn't look like this is a pressing desire, anyway. This threads only 4 years old. Guess everyone is using Facebook for this feature?

Have to agree. My runs post to Facebook and my "Friends" can comment on them if they choose.
Facebook is old school. Now we must have a Google+ clone.
