Hi guys!

Do any of you use the RunKeeper app/website? I've been addicted to it! I would love some "Street Teammates" so if you have it let me know! If you don't, and you do a decent amount of "non-gym" activity, I would suggest getting it! I am a hiker and a walker and I am trying to get back into running, so this is an excellent tool for it!

:)

    I tested Runkeeper but found that SportsTrackLive is even better. I began using it recently after moving from Endomondo. I feel that SportsTrackLive collects more information and gives you better stats on progress.

    I know not the answer you were looking for, but wanted to throw another one out there just in case.

    I do use it but the GPS annoys me, it's much less accurate than my other apps with GPS, and will tell me that I'm only in a poor or fair area for it even when there's no clouds, trees etc in the way. So if I run, or bike in a tree filled area the GPS quits working correctly.

    The idea of the app is great. I love the interval coaching. BUT the gps is horrible. It never tells me the right pace or distance. That's why I run runkeeper and Nike+ at the same time.

    I haven't heard of this app until now. I'm going to have to check it out. Thanks!

    I use RunKeeper also, and haven't had any major issues. Some odd things here and there, but nothing more than any technology... I sent you a Street Team request, Jenn!

    If anyone wants to add me, my username is LeighD.

    I love runkeeper. When I first got it, I was skeptical...however, I wore it with my garmin forerunner and it was step for step, pace for pace accurate!!!
