Mapmyrun or similar app?



Recommended Posts

I'm looking at mapmyrun for distance/ route mapping. Has anyone used it or have something they really like (in an app)? I don't want to buy a fancy watch or monitoring system, just something for my phone.

Thanks All!

I use both map my run and Endomondo and love them both. Hence why I am always switching back and forth between the two.

I started with Nike+ but found it to be quite limited in capabilities. I now use Endomondo and like all the feedback, especially ascent and descent data. I wonder what the premium version has.

I've been using mapmyrun for years. I recently started using Endomondo as well for my trail riding as it appears to be more accurate for biking. I also like mapmyrun on the laptop because if I forget to record a walk, I can go back and manually add it by routing it myself.

I started out using RunKeeper....then tried SEVERAL others including (map my run, nike+, iSmoothRun...just to name a few). I came full circle back to RunKeeper. I think it has the best interface and I love that I can enter and edit my activities (including the maps) on the RunKeeper website. Several apps also sync with RunKeeper.

I'm a little past the middle of c25k myself. I've just ventured outside (off the treadmill) and am looking for something that will help me track my distance when running outside. I found an online site that I was able to map out the distance I ran last Saturday (just over 2 miles if it's accurate). I'm also a myfitnesspal user and want to stick with that program because I'm used to it.

Thanks all for the recommendations!

I love mapmyrun...it is pretty accurate! I have also been using Run Keeper, which is also a pretty good app too!

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
