Runkeeper Issues

As all the avid followers of this blog would know (and there must be at least one), we've been tracking our walks with the generally excellent application, Runkeeper. However all has not been well in Runkeeper land of late, especially after the iOS4 and 4.0.1 iPhone updates.

Methinks the multitasking support is not quite 100% yet, with the application effectively "bailing out" during our walks - very frustrating. This is after 2x app updates.

Anyway, now resorted to removing it and re-installing. let's see what happens tomorrow.

Worst walk ever

Sorry, didn't mean to sound like a downer. Went for a walk yesterday- things didn't go so well. First, had to go alone. Next, rained on me and was so windy my umbrella was useless. Froze my bum off. And was busting for a crap.

On the good side, I did make it back without soiling myself. I grasp onto that as a "glass half full" scenario.

iOS4 and the Stats

Paul and I have a new ongoing goal of keeping our walks above 5Km/hr. So far we've been doing ok, but there's been a little glitch in our stats collection. When Apple released the iOS4 upgrade to the iPhone, the Runkeeper App we use was not compatible. They quickly released an update, however it had a few bugs and messed up our stats. They then released another update but still it crashed on us, forcing me to enter the walk manually. Ahhh, technology.

Hope we get a successful capture today.

Also work has been encroaching on our walks and we've been as irregular as a constipated hippo this last two weeks. NO FAIR!
