Interesting concept. From the FAQ [1]:

> Login into Hero Trainer when you go for a run (gym check-ins will come in the future)

How would you calculate points earned for each run or gym visit? For the former, does the app rely on step count during the "tracked" period or does it incorporate outdoor GPS?

You are correct. For now, we're focusing on tracking only outdoor runs utilizing GPS and accelerometer. In the future, we're evaluating different ways to quantify the intensity of work outs at the gym.
