Cool. Great program. I use it several times a week. It's the main thing that makes me go running! - James

Trailrunner is a wonderful application and the reason why I bought my first GPS device last week. My donation will follow with your next release ;-) - egon

Lots of people take their iPods with them when they go for a jog, hike, or bike ride, but most just use their players to listen to music, not plan their routes. That's too bad, because TrailRunner is a clever piece of software that helps you prepare your intended route then puts it on your iPod with maps, distances, and time goals. - scifi.com

Berbie: Tom, thanks for supporting the TrailRunner project with your donation.
Tom: No - thank YOU for creating it, it's an amazing piece of software! Makes wanting to go for a run that much more inviting.
