The cardio category lets people race or pace themselves for maximum motivation during those runs using times from last time you ran. There’s also ways to share workout programs so people can see where you’ve ran or how much progress you’ve made. Certain ones can integrate your personal playlist so you can hear your own mixes while trying to get fit.
