I use Cyclemeter on my iPhone, it can log runs too. You get the total time, average speed per mile, total miles, and can look up your runing (biking)route on google maps.
If you use it every time, you can also see how often you run per month etc.
I like it
If you want to I can PM you a link to one of my runs so you can see how this looks like.

Thanks so much for the wonderful recommendations (exactly why I love TE so much!). I tried the RunKeeper app. and I really like it so far. Still investigating the others. Thanks again!

So I just got an iPhone 3G, well I actually don't get it till the end of January when my contract is up. But anyways, do any of these apps work best on the 3G iPhone? I know there is a 4G model out there that probably runs all of these well but unfortunately that wasn't in the budget.

When you browse apps in iTunes it will tell you what version of phone the app is compatible with. I also have a 3G and can use most apps. Granted, many of them are now sooo slow and, at times, unresponsive (I guess they want us all to upgrade). Any of the apps that rely on the compass (a feature introduced with the 3GS) won't work on the 3G, but most running apps use the GPS that all the phones have. I've been using RunKeeper on my 3G and love it.

If you can find a 3GS instead of the old 3G, they're much faster, but without any of the problems that made the 4G notorious.

I started with mapmyrun and a stop watch. I came up with a couple loops, 2 mi, 3 mi, and a 5mi. Then I knew where each mile marker was from mapmyrun. My stop watch had a "lap" feature on it so I could tap that at each mile marker.
Now I use the forerunner 305, and LOVE it. I still use mapmyrun to plan new running routes.
