Verizon and Bones in Motion track exercise stats on your handset

Link: Verizon Wireless teams up with Bones in Motion to easily track exercise stats - Engadget Mobile

Verizon Wireless has teamed up with Bones in Motion to offer a downloadable app on select mobiles — the Samsung SCH-A930 / SCH-A990, LG Chocolate (VX8500), and Motorola’s V325 and RAZR V3c / V3m for starters — which utilizes “GPS tracking technology to continuously monitor speed, distance, calories burned, pace and route.” The software even sends goal completion alerts to you for that extra boost of confidence when running solo, and will upload your results to a personalized website for progress monitoring purposes.

Very cool. I myself will stick to using my SnappyU service I reckon! (Thanks Ed!)
