Treadmill running apps

With it being so cold here I have been using the treadmill a lot and I was wondering if there are any apps for the iphone that are for tracking/training on a treadmill.

    I use runkeeper and I add in my indoor runs manually after I complete them. Some of the apps do use the accelerometer but I don't wear my phone on the treadmill so I don't use those.

    Phone apps use GPS, since you are not moving through space on a treadmill they won't work. I think those Fit bit things measure your body's movement so they might work--an owner of one will know. I take it your treadmill doesn't have a tracker on it?
