I also want the ability to review previous runs.

I was very happy to come across TrailGuru and RunKeeper. I had downloaded TrailGuru a few weeks ago and have been using it regularly to track my runs.  I recently came across the RunKeeper app.  Say what you will about social media advertising/viral marketing (i.e Twitter, Facebook) but that is how I discovered Runkeeper (kudos to you Jason ;-) .

I am going to conduct an informal experiment on my user experiences with TrailGuru versus Runkeeper.  Stay tuned for my updates….and good luck to both apps.

Do you find yourself at the drive-through more than in front of the stove? If so pick up or order a copy of Eat This, Not That by Men’s Health editor David Zinczenko. David compares choices between fast-food restaurants and helps you make better decisions for your health, potentially saving you from hundreds of empty, unnecessary calories. There are also chapters that help you decode menus at popular sit-down restaurants and make better prepared food choices at the grocery store. The book is small enough to keep in your car for reference and will easily fit in your purse, bag or backpack. Go by the book store or order it on Amazon. Let me know what you think. Healthy eating!
