Apps | RunKeeper Tracking your run
Apps – Runkeeper Free
Hello viewers, I just wanted to share with you a free app that I use to keep track of my running. In the past I ran track and cross-country and still enjoy going out for a night or morning run to get my mind focused. I always like running, but the thing is that there is little time to keep track of how long you run or how far to run, how many calories you’d burn etc. I wish that there was some thing to keep track of all of the times, distance , etc. and that’s when I found Runkeeper.
Runkeeper is a free Android app that you can download to any Android phone. Just go to the Android Market and download it to your phone. You can also go online a sign up on their web site. My favorite thing about this app is that you can use the GPS tracking function on your phone to keep track of distance, map your route, and more. Below are some screen shots of the web site keeping track of my running data.
When you sign up on the Runkeeper web site you get your own personal profile which you can share with your friends and family.
Also Runkeeper keeps a log of all the activities that you have done. I mostly run so the chart above shows ever run I made and include the distance, time, average pace, and more. You can choose if you want people to see your map of you run route.
Also, there is an area to create your very own running squad. I wish I had this when I was in competition, my team mates could have kept a close watch on each other. Motivate each other for the next track meet. Well I know it would be another way for us to talk smack and for bragging rights.
You have your own fitness report which gives out cool statistics. My favorite are fastest average pace and farthest distance. I always try to push myself to better my run.
You can not only keep track of your work outs, but also track your races.
So there you have it. When I run I always have my Sprint Evo4 Android phone on me with Runkeeper at my side. Tracking my run for important data so I can focus on the run and not worrying about the details. Runkeeper does the job for me. If you an avid runner like me try out Runkeeper. I know you will enjoy it like I do.
