I am not trying to massage my ego in any way (especially since that’s not an incredibly long run). But – I am really excited about this new mapping tool that I found that will map your course on your run or walk and tell you exactly how far you went. It’s the Gmaps Pedometer!

This cool tool uses google maps. To start, just zoom into your neighborhood. Then, hit the “start recording” button. Next, double-click your starting point, and then just double at each turn along your route. It will tally the miles as you go. Try the calorie counter. My run burned 629 calories.

Kewl!
