SportyPal Pro / 2 about to launch

Wednesday, July 14th, 2010

I’ve used a few different mobile apps for tracking my runs. I really like AllSportGPS on the Blackberry for the fact that it gives you a lot of feedback on the screen while you are running.

However, since I left my previous company and ditched my BB I have been using SportyPal which also works nicely and is free although isn’t as feature rich. They have just announced SportyPal Pro (or 2, they don’t seem to have decided the branding yet). I’m guessing the ‘pro’ title means there will be a charge for the product. I think up until now they have relied on advertising on their website.

Of course, if you don’t want to be hauling a device around with you then there is the Garmin Forerunner but maybe that isn’t quite geeky enough. I quite like things like the ‘race’ option on AllSportGPS where you can watch on the map where your ‘former self’ was on the run at the same time.
