Endomondo

The Endomondo Sports Tracker is a free smartphone or Blackberry app that records your sports workouts and links the data to its website (www.endomondo.com).

On the Endomondo website, you can share your data and interact with other users. Endomondo has its headquarters in Denmark. Figure 2-7 shows what the home page looks like once you’ve logged in.

Here’s how the app works, using an example of a recent mountain-bike ride. You install the free or Pro version of the mobile app on your phone (it’s available for Android, Blackberry, and the iPhone). Before you begin your workout, you fire up the app on your device and, using its interface, choose the type of sport (e.g., running, fitness walking, cycling). Then you start the timer to log your workout. Figure 2-8 shows the phone app interface.
