This afternoon I checked iMapMyRun on my phone only to discover that my almost 16 year old daughter was in the middle of a trail run along Otter Brook. I tracked her as she crossed a stream, hooked briefly back on to the main road and finally up the hill to her mother's farmhouse. She logged about 6.5 miles which I could view (in real time) on google maps. Inspired by her effort, I slapped on my running shoes (it's a breezy 45 degrees in NH today) and ran around town for 2.7 miles. I received a text message ribbing me about my "pathetic" output.
While I'm increasingly worried about being lost in the grips of technology, I have to admit that this App is pretty cool (and it happens to be free). It connects me with my kid, even when we're not together....gives us something to kibbitz about, praise each other, help each other. Of course, we all need to remember to take time to simply unplug as well.
Great application you use, I like your post. iPhone make life easy.. http://www.buyiphone.in/iphone-touch-screen.html
