New love!!! (Fitness-related)

For Christmas I finally thawed from the ice age and joined the new millenium by getting a SMART phone! Oh yeah, it's so much fun. But wait, there's more...

I have wanted to get a Garmin Forerunner because I wanted to be able to track my distance, see a map of my walks, get my speed, etc. But honestly, I'm not a runner... So, it would be a highly underutilized tool. I just needed basics!

A friend of my suggested MapMyRun.com. Turns out they have something a little more my 'speed' (pardon the pun) called MayMyWalk.com. It's free, had an app for my cell and VOILA the GPS in my cell phone is now being used for good, and not evil! I have everything I was looking for in a Garmin, and none of the cost! Already logged in some walks and planning to go on another one tonight! Oh yeah, baby... That's what I'm talking about!!!

These apps are fab! Can't wait to get an iphone in a few months so I can use run keeper for my runs! I was guesstimating how fast I ran judging on how long it took me to run a certain route - got on a treadmill at the gym the other day and I run soooo much faster than I thought I did! I defo need one of these apps in my life!
