Tracking runs

I am currently training for the Richmond Half Marathon and am trying to find a good app to track my runs on. I am currently stuck between Nike Run Club or Apple Activity Track. I like all the things the Activity workout tracks.
*has to be compatible with Apple Watch*

    I use Runkeeper, and let it cross-post (but I delete the Runkeeper calories) into the Apple Activity app.

    If you don't have a Garmin, use Strava. If you have a Garmin, use that to record the runs and then feed them to Strava.

    I use Runkeeper. However, most running apps have free versions that work just fine, so I'd recommend trying a few out and figuring out what you like best. You could start up a couple of apps during the same run, assuming your phone has the battery life for it, and compare them side by side.

    Running Ahead has a very good log for multiple activities. My Garmin uploads automatically to RA.
