Another good reason to keep track of fitness is to see the progress!When I was training for the Portland Century I tracked my weekly mileage on the bike as I trained. Same with my running when I trained for Hood to Coast. It also helps if injury happens. Seeing patterns, increases in mileage when I shouldn't have...etc.
