What is a good Android app for tracking running routes?

My husband and I used to use a program called Running Buddy, but it stopped working even though we have the GPS turned on, the problem is on both of our phones.

Is there another good app for tracking your miles, elevation, speed, etc for running and bike routes on an Android phone?

Thanks, Bobbie.

    Runkeeper or MapMyRun are the best I've come across.

    mapmyrun
    jogtracker

    I love them both but like jogtracker better because I have notifications set on it to tell me mins/miles

    I use Edomondo and have had pretty good success with it. I've tried a few other apps but found most of them just drained my battery quickly.

    I use mostly cardiotrainer (love it) and sometimes mapmyrun (which is better on the website side, very easy to combine both app and use of their website

    Nike + seems good. Never used another so I have nothing to compare it to.

    They are all about the same.
    I tried a dozen and ended up with Sports Tracker.
    I dont remember why I liked it best

    My husband and I both used endomondo. But, it stopped working on his phone even though his GPS works with other programs. I still like it.

    I used to use runkeeper but it wasn't getting a gps signal last time (and struggled the time before that) so I switched to nike +

    I like both of them & would have continued to keep runkeeper but it wasn't working. :(

    I haven't tried it yet but the nike app can have a powersong that you play when you need a boost. LOL

    I also use the Run Keeper. You can add buddie on there to keep the motivation going also.

    I've been happy with RunKeeper. Haven't tried any others.
