Here's a site that I've found really useful for marathon/half-marathon training: MapMyRun.com. You create a user account, and can create and save running routes (uses Google maps) that show your distance. From your routes, you can log your time and calculate pace/speed, calories burned, and log to a workout/training calendar. The Training Log is really useful to track your progress against the training plan, and great motivation to see how your running improves over time with practice.
The site also has an iPhone/Blackberry app that utilizes your phone's GPS while you run and automatically creates the route/map and uploads to the site. (I've used in the past with mixed results).
What websites or tools have you found useful for running?
