Apps I Love - Nike+ Running

 I have never been a runner but since I started C25K, I cannot stop running. It's like a little gnome constantly challenging you to run, run run. I'm horrible at it but this app makes me feel good about what I can achieve. It honestly feel great when you run faster than you ever have or a farther distance.


  1. Nike app is free!
  2. It records all your runs, so if you forgot if you ran two days ago, you can just check
  3. It even give you a calorie counter! I know these are all rough estimates, but it seems fairly consistent with the other calculators. 
  4. Let's you listen to your music
  5. Has cues for time or distance
  6. At the end of your run it'll read you all the stats so you don't have scroll through pages. 
  7. Since it records all your runs, it will tell you if you've ran your fastest mile or farthest distance - very motivating
  8. Records your path via gps
  9. Did I mention, it's free???
Even if you just walk a lot, this app is great. It's surprising how many calories you really burn just by walking the dog.
