I was thinking of getting myself a Forerunner 305 then I realize my Iphone, sorry my JB Iphone should be able to to do the same thing as the forerunner using the right app. What is the best app to use when running to measure heart rate/ distance as well as any other useful stuff ? Also if there are any runners on here what are the best straps or supports to hold your Iphone whilst running?

Thanks
 
I use Runkeeper. There are others but I like the app and the way you can upload your logs to the website and track your progress. There is a piece of hardware you plug into your phone, by Wayloo I think, which picks up heart rate from your chest belt, and this data integrates into Runkeeper as well. But I've nit used that as I'm a cyclist and been more interested in track and times. I know heart rate is important for training but I'm not training ;)
