I was wondering what the best iphone App for Running is.

 

Runkeeper - at the Moment it seems the best

Trailguru - thought it was good, nice Gadget is that you can take Photos while Running

GPSies - don't like the layout very much

 

What App do you use?

Like to get others input also.  I tried "Running Gypsy" yesterday because I forgot my Garmin.  It was free.    It was nice to run with music, as usually I don't do that. And really, the iPhone doesn't weight that much for short to medium long runs.

The Gyspy program displays the time is in the big window, and you can't change that.  I prefer current pace.  Also the current pace was finicky, and I wouldn't believe it anyway.  I think it is a function of the GPS, and imagine the Garmin has a better receiver than the iPhone.  

Any other running apps people have tried?

I used imapmyrun when I was in Florida and didn't have my garmin.  It works pretty good and I used it to compare to the garmin twice and it seems to be about the same.

 

plus imapmyrun is free and I like free. LOL
