Gone are the days when exercising was a seemingly random process of fumbling blindly towards abstract goals, all thanks to the MapMyFitness iPhone App.
The app comes with a veritable smorgasbord of capabilities designed to make informed and measured fitness a far easier goal to reach and maintain. In addition to having a mapping utility to help you see where you are going and where you have been, the MapMyFitness iPhone App can also calculate your distance, pace, speed, and amount of calories burned whether you are walking, hiking, or even biking.
And as if that weren't enough, the app is also social media friendly: all your results can be easily shared via Facebook or Twitter should you feel inclined.
