Tracking Run Data

There are several applications that can electronically, with assistance of GPS devices (watches, smartphones, etc) track your time, path and other running data.  It is then easy for you to do the following with this info:

• Analyze your running / workout results (path, distance, steps taken, calories burned, speed, etc)
• Store info for historical reference
• Comment on your run and share your route and results with friends and family on social media (FaceBook, Instagram, etc)

Visit the Tools section of AskRunGuy for some templates to manually track and analyze your run data.
