More Fun With Maps! - Mapping Running Routes To See Calories Burned
This is a new feature in the client area. It’s a tool that lets the user draw a route on a map and see calories burned for that route. The calories burned can equate to either walking, running or cycling and either a default pace can be used, or an actual time taken to complete the route can be entered. Routes can be saved too!
Here is a short video of it in use - just click on play to start the video. The quality of the video isn’t that great, but it shows how it works.
Something we will perhaps add later is the ability for users to share routes (perhaps also comment on them) - for example, I might want to see all the saved routes under 3 miles in length and under 5 miles from my house.
