The Nike+ Running iPhone app was updated today with some new nifty features that take advantage of the iPhone’s built-in GPS and accelerometer. Now runners are able to select from various training programs that range in difficulty and receive daily workouts, reminders, and coaching tips. In addition a slight adjustment can be added for experience level and the amount of distance being ran.
What’s New in Version 4.5.0

At this point, when it comes to workout apps, it seems that Nike and RunKeeper have a choke-hold on the market, as both apps offer so many awesome features.
