- Mobile app I use to log the my run.
I have a friend who weekly logs in a 5k run. I asked if she has a Garmin, but she said she just uses an app on her phone. This was that app - RunKeeper. Simply activate the GPS on the phone and you're good to go.
About RunKeeper:RunKeeper uses the GPS technology found in your iPhone device to track your fitness activity, giving you comparable results to an expensive GPS watch at a fraction of the cost.
The intuitive and easy-to-use interface of the app makes it easy to track how far you went, how long it took, what you pace/speed was, how many calories you burned, and the path you travelled on a map.
Once your activity is completed, the data is synced to the RunKeeper website (www.runkeeper.com) where you can view a history of all of your activities and cumulative totals of all of your vital stats. You can also share your progress with friends by posting your activities to Facebook and Twitter, and creating a profile page that allows people to view all of your public activities.
