Runtastic App is good

Just bought this App for my new Ipod Touch, Free or Pro upgrade only £3.99 its really good. Ran this morning in thick cloud cover, never lost the GPS signal once. Loads of info to be had, shows distance, time, split times, mapped my run and elevation etc. Still more options to work my way through. Its worth giving it a try only because it kept my GPS signal while Runkeeper kept losing it . Just thought I'd share this with you all. Happy running. :)

Thanks for that. Most of my running aids are government issue (ie C25K and Walk4Life) I like the idea of getting info about elevation.

I use Runtastic (basic version) when I'm out over the fields with the dogs so I can track how far we've been. I've never had a problem with it. :)

Don't usually run two days in a row but it was a clearer sky this morning so off I went with Runtastic again. Yep GPS good all through the run, I'm delighted too cos it says I did the same run as yesterday in 28 seconds faster - Yippee 4.78Km in 29.31secs will just need to extend my route to just over 5K and see what it gives me for a time. :)
