Gamified Travel Workout Apps

The Burn The Miles App Combines Work Travelling and Exercise

— June 6, 2013 — Tech
The Burn The Miles app by the German company BalticMiles challenges frequent flyers to burn the same amount of calories that their last flight distance was. In return, users are rewarded with flight perks and a great workout.

While many find it extremely hard to balance work, travelling and staying active, the Burn the Miles app seeks to bridge all three of those in a timely manner. Users can download the app, track how far their flight traveled and then have 24 hours to burn the same distance number in calories. Now workers no longer have to feel bad about sitting inactively for so many hours during a flight.

Those who complete the game workout challenge receive perks and credits for numerous stores -- a great way for a busy traveler to stay motivated.
