RunGo

There’s nothing more annoying than having to stop and look at the map when you’re running a new route. With RunGo, you can set your desired route beforehand and it will offer voice commands, letting you know when and where to turn. RunGo can also recommend routes to help you avoid crowded streets or get lost in unknown parts of town. It’s great for anyone in a new city or looking to diversify their running routines.

We think this one is pretty cool. In addition to tracking your pace and distance, Runkeeper also provides real-time feedback on mileage and calorie count. You can plan workouts in it and set goals. But the best part is that it works with iTunes and Spotify to pair songs to your pace based on the rhythm of the music. Don’t ask us how.
