Fitness Log 1.72 - The FitnessLog program uses your Newton to track all
your races and workouts, for biking, running, swimming, and other activities. For races,
it will monitor and report your personal best times for each race. The program comes
prepared to track races of 1 mile, 5k, 10k, 12k, half and full marathons. If you run races
of other distances, you can enter those either as one-time races or you can define a new
standard race category for that particular distance. You can also define a series of
standard training workouts.
Gut Buster 1.0 - Gut Buster is a Newton program which was written to
assist anyone on an exchange based weight loss program. Gut Buster is shareware. If you
find it useful, and it helps you with your weight loss, the author would appreciate a
contribution.
Pocket DiabetiCare 2.0b6 - Pocket DiabetiCare is a application for the
Newton PDA. It was developed as a means to capture blood sugar readings and analyze this
infomation as it occurs. It is only meant as a tool to aid in analyzing data, not a
replacement for the advice of your doctor. Latest beta includes printing support,
charting fixes and improved averages in which 0 readings are no longer included. Credit:
Tactile Systems.
Runner's Log - Runner's Log is a little freeware applet by S.O.A.P
Notes, Inc. It helps you keep track of how many miles you've run each day, and for the
year. Just select the right day, and enter the number of miles, and minutes run (or
walked, biked...). Then tap save, and you're totals for the year will be shown. The source
code is included, and if you make changes or improvements, the authors would like to see
it!
Target Heart Rate - This is the first module in a series of modules for
the runner and walker. These newton apps are part of the Training Log for Runner's and
Walker's. It will contain functionality for capturing your daily and weekly mileage.
Calculators for pace and training heart rates. Pace and steps per minute charts. Logs for
entering weight and resting heart rates. This one contains Training Heart Rates only.
Enter your age and resting heart rate, to calculate your target heart ranges. (Pick from a
variety of calculations).
The Wheel 2.0 - (a gestational age calculator) designed for the 2.0
Newton Operating System. It will not work on any 1.x OS MessagePad. For those of you who
used the previous 1.x version, you'll notice that the interface has changed completely
and, in my humble opinion, is more intuitive and user-friendly (but only you folks can
tell me if that is really the case). This new interface was actually taken from a Java
applet that I developed to replace the other clumsy gestational calculators I found on the
Internet. If you enter values for the BPD or FL and the numbers disappear, it simply means
that the value you entered was outside of the range of accuracy for the corresponding
equation and measurement.
