Travel Stuff: Fitness Apps

The Olympic medal collector, Michael Phelps, was back, and got the 20th medal. In London, Lochte is more than Phelps, and he got 5 medals. (Anyway, it's important to get medals for nations' identity, but it's not only the purpose of the Olympic Games. We should praise looser. They may become the next winners and generations.)

Swimming is a good way to fit our bodies. According to a lot of internet sites, it's one of the total body exercises. Naturally, if we feel heavy to do it, we can walk in the swimming pool.



Fitness and Travel are similar. Especially, if you run just on the treadmill or just swim in the same swimming pool. Maybe you sometimes feel something boring.

Now there are some apps on the smartphones.

Sports Tracker

Originally, this application was from Nokia. It has now some edition for iOS, Android, Symbian, and Windows Phone. You can add your original menus, and write training diary for it. You can share your progress with others online.

Nike+

When we go around, people sometimes use iPod and train their bodies. They are always with the rhythms of their favorite music, and the music keeps their paces of their fitness. One of the good ways is to use this "Nike+." It has some kinds such as running, training, and basketball.


When people jog across towns sometimes say, "It's like a picnic." If you can share your topics online, you may have a lot of friends. It's a good part of the Internet time.



If you are a fitness mania, you always think about it. You may select a hotel with a del-equiped gym. Maybe you also have a plan to jog around a beach, park, downtown near your destination. It's very fun because you can encounter the local people, and get some information for your travel.

But, please be careful if you jog around. Yesterday, near the Olympic Park in London, a cyclist was killed by bus. He is a 28 years old man. I'm not sure he used these kind of devices or not. However, if you use them on the way of your fitness, you may be careless for listening to music, and operate for the apps. Your fitness is naturally a small escape from your daily life, but don't travel the underworld. You may never come back!
