New research by University of Arizona anthropologist David Raichlen suggests humans have been “wired to run” since the dawn of time, but that doesn’t mean we don’t want the most modern tools of the trade when we hit the streets. Try these hi-tech apps out the next time you lay down tracks.
5K101
Great for beginners, 5K101 helps you take your first steps, then guides you all the way through a full, 30-minute run in just eight weeks. The built-in training program tells you when to run and the app tracks your routes using the iPhone’s built-in GPS features.
