			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Over the past few months we have been working hard at mapometer.com and we are pleased to announce some improvements to the site.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mapometer.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Screen-shot-2010-07-13-at-10.09.431.png"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-320" title="Screen shot 2010-07-13 at 10.09.43" src="http://www.mapometer.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Screen-shot-2010-07-13-at-10.09.431-300x32.png" alt="" width="300" height="32" /></a></p>
<p>1. As well as running cycling and walking you can now save routes for mountain biking, canoeing, swimming, horse riding, downhill skiing and cross country skiing.  We have had many requests for this feature and we would urge users to change any saved routes in these sports so that they appear correctly in our search engine.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mapometer.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Screen-shot-2010-07-13-at-10.14.28.png"><img class="alignleft size-full wp-image-318" title="Screen shot 2010-07-13 at 10.14.28" src="http://www.mapometer.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/Screen-shot-2010-07-13-at-10.14.28.png" alt="" width="127" height="34" /></a></p>
<p>2. We have completely overhauled the training log. Users can now easily see their recent activity and analyse distance, speed, effort, energy used, and time in any chosen period for any route or sport in an easy to use table and graph.   Overall, users get a much better overview of their training.</p>

The loop is completed by passing Buckingham Palace and The Mall, winding our way along the Thames and making a final cross at Tower Bridge. It&#8217;s a beautiful walk that&#8217;ll give even seasoned Londoners a new taste of this amazing city.&#8221;</span></em></p>
