Thanks for the suggestions. I should have said that I'm hoping for a gps-enabled app, since my step length can vary significantly and so counting steps would not be an accurate way to measure my distance walked. I found one called Map My Walk which seems to be what I was hoping for, though I have not yet tried it on an actual walk. The interface could be better, but it seems useable so far. I welcome any other suggestions anyone has.
