iDat
This app is not just a running app – it is a complete fitness and calorie-tracking app in itself. Designed in tandem with the Health Promotion Board, it is specifically relevant to Singaporeans and gives you information on the calories present in a wide variety of your favourite local dishes, such as chicken rice, laksa and chilli crab. So you will know whether you are overeating or not.
iDat also gives users the ability to track calories burned through a variety of workouts, ranging from the more popular sports like running to cycling to other interesting sports, such as dancing, rock climbing or canoeing.
You can download this app from the iTunes App store and the Google Play store.
Zombies, Run!
This is a very interesting fitness app, because it gives you real motivation to run – by making zombies chase after you. Try running at night with this app. You will be completely creeped out – so you will get a good speed workout.
A cross between a fitness app and a video game, Zombies Run tells you an interesting audio story about the zombie apocalypse while you are running, complete with intriguing characters and an ongoing chapter-like storyline that makes you just want to carry on forever. Once you immerse yourself into this zombie universe, you won’t be able to stop running. In my opinion, this is one of the more effective running apps.
You can download this app from the iTunes App store and the Google Play store.

Good post on running apps here! Personally I am using mapmyrun and the one feature I like is the ability to have a clean interface even in its website =)
I didn’t know about the zombies run app though. Thanks for mentioning it!
