Runners/walkers with smartphones (iPhone or Android)

The RunKeeper Pro app is free through the end of January.

This app helped me get started with running. Fun to see your stats and map of where you were.

Thanks!! I have the free version but I've been using Endomondo lately. I may give Runkeeper another shot!

Thanks Mimi! I love Runkeeper. Off to upgrade!

I do love a good fitness app.
Can I use it with Nike+? Or would it be in place of that?

[crecia27]

from what I understand of nike + this would be used in place of it. It tracks your speed and miles covered and even maps your route. It uses GPS so it doesn't work for treadmills.

Apparently you can use it with treadmills from what I was reading. And you can integrate it with Nike +...just noticed that in the settings somewhere I think.

I always use Runkeeper, I'm going to download the upgrade! Thanks Meems!

If you run across it again I'd love to know how to do it, I can only see where to add it manually after the fact.

It must have been on the description I read. I suppose it would be manual entry then. meh.

Thanks! I am beginning an 8 week running program on Monday. This will be great.
