measuring app recommendations

[Starmum10]

Hi.

I know I run very !! slowly, but I don’t have any way to measure my distance travelled. I need a free app that recognises paths as well as roads and can tell me how far I’m running.

Any suggestions?

Thanks. X

There are many apps available to track your runs such as Strava, Run keeper, Map my run and more .Just search on your download site 🙂

I personally use the free version of Strava

Thank you. I can’t remember the name but last time I had a free one that you could trace a route out on a map in advance and see how long the route is (if that makes sense). These just seem to measure as you run, which is also useful but not what I’m looking for.

plotaroute.com will do this .But you may want to edit your post as you said you wanted to measure distance travelled, not distance you are going to travel 🙂

Aww thank you, and yes you are right that I’d not been clear enough. Will do better next time. 😊

plotaroute.com perhaps?

Hi, I use the free version of the Strava app, it records roads and paths and time, distance, pace and calories. Smart watches can link to it too but I currently use my phone.

Just read your next post you don’t want this type of app you want to plot in advance, that’s a good idea, if you find a good one please share 👍🏻
