It's not an app per say but me and my wife both use a Fitbit, the lower end only cost about £30. They then synch with your phone and you can even set it up to talk to MFP. We love them so much I even managed to get my mum using one.

My wife and myself both run and my (soon to be) 4 year old has asked us to enter him into a race, so whilst I run the MK Marathon my wife and the little one will be racing in the 1.5m Super Hero Race!!!! Does that prove the point?

I just used cheap but good socks by karimore and found that they worked fine. I tried the Nike dry fits but found them to thin, I was wearing the thicker karimoress when I brought my trainers. They retail in the UK for about a fiver in sports soccer

Thursday- running my first half marathon (running for pie)! Friday-depending on how I feel....60 minutes cross or run easy 3 Running for Pie? Where's that? From experience you might want to turn Friday into a rest day. Good Luck for Thursday!!!!! Chris

How long after your breakfast do you workout? Might be worth putting a snack in about an hour before doing your workout. Just remember to keep it healthy rather than a chocolate.

Hey, I'm down in Wiltshire, any body else?

Most of the timings are up to you, I work out at different times of the day depending on what else I have on. With the weighing pick a time and stick to that same time, that way you will cut out the variables.

My work sometimes involves alot of running about for a day (waiting tables for 10 hours), the way I log it is put in slow walking, 2mph and then 1/4 of the time that Ive been doing it. My reconking is that I do run about but there is a lot of pauses in there as well. I also have the other part of my job (kitchen Manager)…
