# Run App
This app allows you to display the status of your run, it
shows distance, time, steps, cadence, pace and more.
To use it, start the app and press the middle button so that
the red `STOP` in the bottom right turns to a green `RUN`.
## Display
* `DIST` - the distance travelled based on the GPS (if you have a GPS lock).
* NOTE: this is based on the GPS coordinates which are not 100% accurate, especially initially. As
the GPS updates your position as it gets more satellites your position changes and the distance
shown will increase, even if you are standing still.
* `TIME` - the elapsed time for your run
* `PACE` - the number of minutes it takes you to run a kilometer **based on your run so far**
* `HEART` - Your heart rate
* `STEPS` - Steps since you started exercising
* `CADENCE` - Steps per second based on your step rate *over the last minute*
* `GPS` - this is green if you have a GPS lock. GPS is turned on automatically
so if you have no GPS lock you just need to wait.
* The current time is displayed right at the bottom of the screen
* `RUN/STOP` - whether the distance for your run is being displayed or not
## Recording Tracks
`Run` doesn't directly allow you to record your tracks at the moment.
However you can just install the `Recorder` app, turn recording on in
that, and then start the `Run` app.
## TODO
* Allow this app to trigger the `Recorder` app on and off directly.
* Keep a log of each run's stats (distance/steps/etc)
