I recently got an email from Dailymile.com with my 2014 stats in it. I record almost all of my workouts and definitely all of my runs on DailyMile. I also use a Suunto Quest HRM and record my workouts on their MovesCount website. Also, for those who are unfamiliar, Athlinks.com is a website aggregator that tracks all of your races. Go there and type in your name to see your racing history. It's interesting. Here's what these sites say I did in 2014 and my comparison to 2013.
2013 2014
DailyMile- 1566 miles DailyMile- 1225
MovesCount- 1543 miles MovesCount- 1226
Total # of workouts
DailyMile- 230 DailyMile- 149
MovesCount- 296 MovesCount- 153
Lbs burned: DailyMile- 63 DailyMile- 50
Calories burned: MC- 227,583 MC- 173,371
My conclusion is that I took it easy compared to 2013. I suppose that may have something to do with the birth of my son. I ran and cross trained a bit more in 2013 and started to dial it back in the early fall when my son was about 2 months old. I found that being a new parent took priority and it wasn't until the late spring of 2014 that I was finally able to ramp my mileage back up. The biggest area to suffer was my cross training. Notice in 2013 that I worked out 230 times according to DailyMile and 296 times according to MovesCount. The reason for the discrepancy is because MovesCount has a lot of cross training workouts that DailyMile does not know about. Now notice how the total workout numbers are much closer together in 2014; 149 vs 153. That tells me two things. First, I worked out a lot less in 2014 and I did mostly running with about 4 cross training workouts thrown in.
A few more stats that I like to geek out on:
