There seems to be one for just about everything... glad exercise made the list! This site ranks the 5 best mobile fitness apps (and the photo is by Lululemon... cool)! Most allow you to track your route (using GPS), times, speed, calories burned, etc. Some track movement in general (I hope they use the built-in accelerometer and don't require you to buy some stupid shoe pod one), and others serve as a workout reference manual. Of course, you can upload all this information to a database and/or share it with your friends.
After reading this, my immediate thought was... so, how long until we can "virtually train" with our friends? I'm just picturing people in the not so distant future syncing their mobile devices with others living in different cities so that they can all run a 5-miler together... just know my running avatar will definitely need red compression socks! #20
