You can follow a saved course simply because it is a good route. For example, you can save and follow a bike
friendly commute to work.
You can also follow a saved course, trying to match or exceed previously set performance goals. For example,
if the original course was completed in 30 minutes, you can race against a Virtual Partner trying to complete
the course in under 30 minutes.
