About to start up running regularly outside now that it's finally cool off down here in the South.

I'd like an app to track my pace and map out my run - there are way too many these days. Doesn't really matter if it syncs to MFP. Any suggestions on apps that are simple (easy to use) but pretty accurate?

    They are all relatively similar but I am a big fan of Runkeeper. Good interface, easy to use.

    Runkeeper; Strava; if you want a story to listen to try Zombies, Run (does not have as many tracking features as the other apps).

    Hi,
    I use iCardio. Interface is clean and clear. Spoken voice is actually a recorded human and not a computer generated voice. In the couple of years I've used it its never crashed.

    Ive tried all the others but they never seemed to work quite as good as iCardio.

    Cheers,
    Shaun.

    I like Runkeeper. I always liked Strava, but sometimes it would whack out. I find Runkeeper more accurate.

    The app is fantastic but if your phone's GPS is wonky it sucks. I used it for a couple of years and loved it until I got my Note3. At any rate I think RunKeeper has the most features for a free app. Well, there's Strava too but Runkeeper was great.
