Coolest gmap integrations ever? August 24, 2005
Posted by Aaron in : General , trackbackOk well perhaps only if you are a runner. Here is the link that Dan sent me that started this. It isn’t bad, you zoom in on a town and can double click to mark legs of routes. It gives you mileage and can even estimate calories burned.
But then I found this, it doesn’t calculate calories, but it allows you to post routes for others in your area. I’ve posted a 3 mile loop for greenville, I could do any number of mileage loops extending this same route, but I’ll probably diversify if I put more in.
I’ll probably use the first one to quickly figure mileage for a run, but if I find a couple good routes, I’ll drop them in the second one.

Aaron,
I’m planning some big additions to the site over the next week, including a personalized version of the site so you can save preferences and quickly get to your own routes. I can add calorie counting to that list if it is helpful. Thanks for the mention and for using the site - let me know if you want any other features!
