The Best App Ever
Believe it or not the best “app” ever is a mother. She never lets you forget that you have to do that particular step if you want to complete your goal. Even if you are on the other side of the planet, she will find a way to wake you up and nag all over you “… get up and start your running routine” . Seems that mothers are covered with a do-not-start-with- excuses-teflon-layer and have a reliable lie detector within their brains. It is true! They always know if you are doing your very best! Yes, they do.
Is there a perfect app out there?
No. It is hard to promise you that you will find one absolutely perfect app. Try some and when you find the perfect match -that meet your needs- then stick to it and set your goals.
