Nike+ Running Launches Apple Watch App

Two longstanding partners take another innovative step as Nike has just announced the integration of its Nike+ Running app on the Apple Watch. Available April 24, the fitness application will allow its users to access distance, duration and pace on the compact smartwatch, encouraging them to run smarter and run more. Additionally, the device will enable friends to track their progress against and conversely cheer for each other through its Nike+ global running community, as well as through actionable notifications. Bluetooth-enabled headphones will allow runners to listen to music, calls, and cheers from friends through the watch. Nike+ Vice President Stefan Olander says, “We took the best of Nike+ Running and built a seamless experience for Apple Watch customers.” For more information on the app, visit Nike.com.
