NIKE+ RUNNING APP UPDATE INTRODUCES PHOTO SHARING
Sharing
runs is easier and more fun than ever before with the latest Nike+ Running App
update.
Malaysia, October 22nd 2013 – Starting today, runners logging miles with the Nike+ Running
App for iPhone will find a more fun and personalized experience with the debut
of two new features: Photo Sharing and Auto-Pause.
The latest update to the popular running app
allows users to be able to share photos from before, during and after their run
instantly with their friends through Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Path.
There are three easy ways to share:
·
Pre-Run: Before heading out, runners can post
a picture of their gear, starting spot, friends – whatever’s on their mind.
Posts on Facebook that receive ‘likes’ initiate real-time audio cheers to
encourage the runner.
·
During the Run: The new Auto-Pause makes it easy for
users to pause their workout, snap a picture to share later, and then resume their
run.
·
Post-Run: After a run is a great time for
runners to share their accomplishment by posting a custom collage made of
photos taken before, during or after their run. Users can personalize their
post even more by adding stickers touting their stats including NikeFuel,
distance, pace, route map and Nike+ achievements.
Another new feature, Auto-Pause, integrates
with Photo Sharing for a seamless experience. Auto-Pause uses the GPS
technology to detect when the runner has stopped and automatically pauses the
workout. When the runner starts up again, Auto-Pause can and resumes tracking
stats. When the app pauses, the camera
icon pops up to enable picture taking.
For runners in an urban environment or on any
route with frequent traffic lights or breaks, Auto-Pause helps eliminate the
possibility of distorted time or pace stats by only counting the time actually
spent running. Auto-Pause can be turned off or on in the Settings section of
the App.
Since its launch in 2006, Nike+ Running has
provided runners the chance to track, measure, share and compare their runs
with a global community of athletes. Today the Nike+ Running community has
logged over 1 billion miles worldwide.

MPIB Run 2014 - Preparation Begins for Runners!
Multi-Purpose Insurans 2014 Run prepares 1st time and seasoned runners
for the 5th January 2014 Race
Runners Malaysian took the runners through 4.6 km of the actual route for the Race Day on 5th January 2014. Many were there to familiarise themselves with the route and to pick up some tips on basic fitness as well as sharing the benefits of taking up running as a sustainable healthy recreational activity. Participants enjoyed a healthy run in the fresh morning air as well as received a complimentary “My First Run Clinic” vest.
The concept of My First Run Clinic is to help individuals who are now not running to take up running as a sustainable healthy recreational activity. Runners Malaysia will be conducting the 2 months programme commencing on 19 October and ending with a fellowship and trial run on 21 December 2013. All the Clinics will be held on Saturdays at 7:30 a.m. and on certain Saturdays after the run, invited speakers and among them, Mr. Mark Williams, Standard Chartered KL Marathon Head Coach will share running tips, strength training, correct running shoes, fitness & performance.
The theme, “Healthy Lifestyle – Work Life Balance” has been maintained to continue to encourage 1st time and seasoned runners to kick start the new year with living a healthy lifestyle as their new year resolution.
This 3rd run will again be held at the Padang Merbuk with 8 competitive categories i.e. 4 categories each for the 12KM and 8KM and 2 Fun Run categories of 5KM. A 3 KM walk is being planned for the Runners’ family members who wish to join in.
