Hi runningwild. I've been using Runkeeper throughout C25K. I normally begin the podcast playing on my iPhone, then exit out while it plays and load up and begin Runkeeper. Seems to work fine for me :)

Great thanks, have just tried it walking round the living room! Don't think 'Runkeeper,' was too impressed though, ha ha! All set for my next run then.

I love runkeeper - I use it with Laura, and without. I've got kind of addicted to the way it tells your pace per k at the end of the run. I set it to tell me every k and it's really nice to know how far you've done,

I have runkeeper set to talk to me every 5 minutes - which is great except when I manage to start it just seconds after Laura, so that the two of them talk at the same time! Maybe I should change it to telling me after each km...

Thanks all, yes that American voice just isn't the same as our Laura's!

I use runkeeper and my HTC wildfire , although sometimes I have to enter the run manually later because I couldn't get a GPS signal. Like RainbowC i have it set tyo talk to me every 5 minutes. I love it because now that I'm on solid runs I can listen to my own music but still have regular progress checks. The calories used info seems completely random though!
