 The MapMyRun app is one such app, and it’s great
for runners who like to hit the road with a smartphone
in tow for entertainment, safety, and convenience.
With it and a handset, users can listen to music, call
for a ride if you get lost, and keep track of miles, all
without carrying three separate pieces of equipment.

INTRODUCTION

 MapMyRun is a great way to accurately track workouts using
a smartphone’s GPS. The app reports statistics in real time and
can deliver stats via voice prompts, letting the user know
when they have hit predetermined mile markers without
pulling out their phone and checking the screen. For
instance, if the app is set to alert the runner at 1 mile intervals,
at each mile, a voice will announce the current distance,
time, and average pace.

 The on screen route tracker uses Google Maps and displays
distance, speed, route, elevation, and more. This is different
from most GPS watches and tiny trackers, since most models
can not display a map in real time. This makes it a great
feature for those who tend to get lost on runs (this writer-
runner included).

RECORD A RUN

 In addition to tracking workouts, users are able to keep a
detailed food log to track nutrition as well as their weight.
Workouts can be shared with friends and family, for some
healthy competition, or maybe with a running group to
track progress. Routes can be saved automatically, and
the app will keep track of past stats and compare it with
future workouts on the same route. Users can save routes as
public, which means there is a good deal of available
routes to scroll through in any given area

 There are even contests that users can enter, and if they
reach the goal (for example, run 30 miles in 30 days) before
the cut off date, they are entered to win various prizes such
as an iPad or a Visa gift card. It is certainly an interesting
way to motivate oneself out the door every day..
