Tracking/Logging a Combination Run/jog workout using MyFitnessPal with Apple watch
I am by no means a runner. However, when using a treadmill I generally alternate between walking and a slow jog (I.e. 3.5 mph-5.2 mph). I have been tracking using the indoor walk category. Is that correct or does that overstate the calorie burn? Are there other options? Thanks!

Arise App
I think it needs a little tweaking, and some features added; but I like the video game/anime aspect to the Arise app. It rewards you for getting your programmed workout in, and it takes XP away from you if you miss a day. Helps those of us with ADHD to discipline ourselves to get out there and do it. I wanted to try it andā¦
