Map My Run
Map My Run is a “Free” smartphone app for tracking workouts using the Phones GPS. Completed workouts can be saved to an online application where they can be viewed and exported.
The application stores workouts totals mileage and time and can be used to create courses using mapping tools (create a route)
Within the online application there are a number of basemaps and a profile of the route can be created and examined.
