About

I created Running Digital to organize my fitness resources and reference materials, sharing with all who’d like help with their training.

Since 1991, I’ve used countless electronic tools and systems to help get the most from my endurance training. Recent innovations in mobile technology have converged professional-level fitness tools with media-rich experiences. All your workout data can be uploaded live to web services for private or social discussion with excellent mapping options for route planning, navigation and sharing.  From the serious competitor to the casual walker, there are a broad range of systems available using your mobile phone as a platform.

With a career in pharmaceuticals, a background in sports physiology and a lifetime of endurance training, I know the benefits of approaching fitness with science. I’ve marveled at the data resulting from nutritive and training modifications, applied with electronic monitoring technologies, forever changing my perspective of the “no-pain-no-gain” approach. How I’ve personally adapted these tools and advice into an advantage is one focus of this site. I also try to keep my finger on the pulse of the most useful mobile offerings, from hardware to software.

Frequency of activity is the most important thing to remember. You don’t need anything to get started but an ounce of discipline and a desire to improve.
