Lately, I've been really getting into running. I used to absolutely hate it, but all of a sudden, I love it! Since never used to do it and I had absolutely no idea what I was doing, I figured it would be helpful to find an app that would help me to keep track of all my running information. And I found the perfect app: Runtastic!
This is a free app available for Apple, Android and Windows. This app tracks everything you could possibly need to know about your running experience. I just use the most simple version of this app, but there are so many extra gadgets your can add to track even more. I'm talking about heart rate monitors, watches, scales and many more! Of course this is just an option and you don't need it to get an amazing program.

"What does this app actually do?", I hear you thinking. Well, most important, it keeps track of your distance, speed, but also the increase of height your had during your run and the amount of calories you've burnt. If you connect a heart rate monitor, it'll also keep track of your heart rate during your run. Well all of these things are quite usual and you find them in almost every running/workout app. But there are some small things and options that make this app a little more special and more comfortable to use. For example, this run tracks your route, using your gps signal and it shows your speed at every stage of the run.
Also, you have the option to add music to a playlist to listen while you're running and you can get motivated by a personal coach. These are the little things that make this app a little more likeable than the others. The thing that keeps me motivated to keep going for runs, is the fact that all your workout sessions get saved in your history and this makes me want to improve all the time. You can also earn medals for special achievements and they send you weekly reports of your workouts. What I also like to do, is ad a picture from my view every time I end my running session. Again, this makes it a bit more personal and inspiring.
The amazing thing about this app is that it can be used for any sport you can imagine. I only use it for running and sometimes for cycling when I want to know how far and how quick I've cycled. I highly recommend trying this app out if you love sporting and you want to keep track of your achievements!
Love A
