Tracking Shoes

Hi,
Although I've been using my FR210 and Garmin Connect for over a year now, I am new the Garmin Forums. I'm hoping you can help me with a challenge that I'm having with Garmin Connect.

I've been using the comment field to include the name of the shoes that I run in so that I can track the mileage on each of my pairs of running shoes. It would be nice if Garmin included a better option for tracking shoe use, but this was the best option I could find.

So for when I want to know how many miles I have run in a pair of shoes, I filter using the shoe name as a keyword. That works fine; however the report that is produced doesn't have a total or subtotal for miles and the information can't be easily exported if it is more than one screen long. The result is that it is difficult to determine the miles run. I'm sure that others also use Garmin Connect to track their shoe miles, so I wondering what others have found works best.

Thanks for your insights!

I Use TrainingPeaks almost solely for its Equipment log, allowing you to track miles on bikes and shoes, among other things. With the 620, I REALLY REALLY hate having to upload my data twice. Once into connect (pretty much automatically), and once directly connected to my computer using USB and into the Training Peaks Device Agent.

This is a royal pain, and I'd really like to stop. Please Garmin, come into the 21st century and add an equipment tracker. It really isn't that hard to do.
