[quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]I love how technology plays an important role! Now that's an inspiring cover story. The tech behind the curtain of Dcum using tech for other Q of life. Where is Sports Illustrated and Wired and all those reporters looking for a scoop?![/quote]

One other bit of technology that has had an important role is RunSocial (https://www.runsocial.com). This is a program that runs on iOS and Androids that shows a life-like running course. The avatars of other runners using the program show up as well, so you feel like you are running in the real world with real people. We have a television in our exercise room and I display RunSocial on it, getting a big screen view. The program controls our treadmill (it works with several brands), registering the speed at which you are running and automatically raising and lowering the incline based on the terrain. I normally run the Japan 5K. In the beginning, everyone was passing me but now I pass about half the people (still get left in the dust by many others).

The program can also be used on an iPad with a non-supported treadmill if you set the speed on the program manually.

Mind blown. This allllmost makes me want to start running. I do other sports but this kind of running "socially" seems very revolutionary to me, given the problem with the stereotypical sedentary "lonely" gamers. This is such a fun solution. [/quote]
