Get out and do something

I'm certainly not the fittest guy in the world, having not run on a regular basis since I was playing tennis in high school, but I know a number of running folks - including, sometimes, The Girl, herself. For those folks - and via a friend at work - I offer you MapMyRide.com, a service that lets ya map out any run / bike / walk in your area of the world via a Google Maps interface. It'll calculate elevation changes, total distances, and approximate times, and you can mark things along the route (water, bathroom, workouts, etc) and then share your maps with other folks - or search for maps for your area already made.

Kinda cool what people will do when presented with a single useful tool and a need.
