My garmin forerunner broke and I need a new running gps. When I run inside I use a Nike chip for my iPod. I am also in need of a new phone. Should I not purchase a new forerunner and go to a new iPhone and use that to run. Anyone out there use their iPhone for this. I will dump my droid for this:veryconfu
 
I have a droid and use the app Map my Run and it works perfectly for me. One of my friends has an Iphone and uses the same app as well. I mean it really would be up to you if you want to upgrade for an Iphone or buy another forerunner.

I use my Iphone and the Nike+ GPS app when I run. It works both outside with GPS and indoors with what they call Motion X technology. Very accurate in both and you can track your runs on the Nike+ website. I highly recommend it.

Which forerunner did you have?

I'm a big iPhone fan, but when it comes to running, I think it is best to have a device on your wrist that is built for that purpose.

I use the Forerunner for outside runs and use the Nike+ with Nano for indoors. I don't like running with an armband and just think the iPhone is too big and heavy to be used for this application. I know alot of people do it - to each his (or her) own.
