Best Run Tracking Apps

Ok, I started the C25K app by Zen Labs a few weeks ago. Once I get to week 5 it starts wanting you to either run a set amount of time OR set amount of minutes whichever comes first.
Since the C25K app does not track distance I have tried a couple of apps(RunKeeper & MapMyFitness) and have found them to be wildly inaccurate. I have a UP24 and can see how I did after the run but need something with real time updates which the 2 apps I mentioned do but are too inaccurate to trust.
SO, what have you all found to be the best solution to this?

I've been very happy with Runtasic, which interfaces nicely with MFP.0

I use Endomondo to track distance outside. If find if I'm running indoors its not as accurate0

I also use Runtastic. I have the pro version, and I really like the app.0

I use runtastic, you can do more than running, cycling and rollerblade and many other stuff get the pro version tough0

I always used MapMyRun until I got a Garmin Forerunner.... used both for a while and MapMyRun was always very accurate...0
