Does anybody have any suggestions for running apps? I've got the free version of MapMyRun but reluctant to upgrade, are there any free ones with the same spec as the paid ones??

Runkeeper, Strava, Endomondo, etc, etc.....there are loads and they all have their strengths and weaknesses.....it depends what you want from them.

Surprisingly, none of the free versions are as fully featured as the paid for versions...........

I don't know what MapMyRun is like so ~I can't offer a comparison, but I use strava which does what I need.

I used to use Runtastic. They are great because if you hold your nerve once you have registered they have weekends when the pro app is free, they have them quite often usually around public holidays.

MMR has lots of features on the free version. What additions are you looking for?

I use Nike Run Club. It's free and fantastic. Tracks treadmill runs too, and I think it has training programs (though I've never tried one).
