Hello !
A mobile application that I love to use during my exercise : Runkeeper.
There is also a web-based edition for Runkeeper.
Click here for iPhone version and here for Android version.
Features that I love :
1. Easy to use and straight forward
When I go out jogging, I will click open the application, choose an activity : running or walking, and click on the "Start Activity" button right away. It will then automatically track my location, how far, time, map, and such.
Why it helps? It is a very convenient application to use. Click "Start" and off you go !

I am aiming for 50 km running and 30 km of walking in 3 months.
Runkeeper gives you a platform to keep track your goals.
Why it helps ? Tracking how far you've achieved and how much farther you need will keep you on your track. Well, at least it helps me. 3 km more to go before aiming for 100 km run ! :D

3. Save your Activities
How far, when, map, time taken to complete it, how much calories burned and such.

4. Share and tweet.
Why it helps? Everything is about social network nowadays! Share it with your friends, compete, drag them along.

- list down events that you can join near you
- find street team
- save your routes & share
