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 wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
