Mitchell McKenna replied to the idea "Need RSS feeds for "My Fitness Blog" and "My Routes"" in RunThere

Hey Leo, Great to hear the blog.runthere.com RSS feed is up and user "FitBlog" RSS is on the way!
I asked about the RSS feeds because I think more integration into social networks would greatly increase the RunThere user base! I'd like to see it in twitter and lifestreaming services such as FriendFeed. I use a lifestreaming service called Sweetcron on my site mitchmckenna.com. Lifestreaming services like this can bring in your activity through RSS feeds. You could see posts like "Leo just completed running a new route (6.22 miles)" with a picture of the route or a Google map.

Finally, congrats on the great interview over at InsideFacebook.com, ironically I was thinking about creating a simpilar app just 4 months ago but more based getting points for completing "challenges" from friends to run suggested new routes, or a particular grid in which a user must run routes until all roads in that grid are covered. Any plans for a challenging type of feature in the future? Thanks.
