There seem to be about a million in the app store, anybody have good things to say about any one of them in particular?

I have Kinetic, which seems to be pretty decent and gets good reviews, although I haven't really used it. It's pretty cheap though, so give it a shot.

I've tried a few, always end up coming back to Runkeeper even though the maps are useless (standard Google maps, useless off-road!). Good for biking and other activities too with the same proviso on the maps.

To be honest I have found the GPS tracking on the iPhone wanting on several occasions. If you rub regular then I would advise having a look at the gamin range of GPS watches.

I use everytrail pro which is great. There's a free version you can try out.

Depends on which one. The 3 was ok, but the 4 is very accurate, I've used mine with Viewranger and accuracy is spot on, although it needs the satellites to be clear, but even under trees in Savernake Forest it's within ten feet.
I'd forgotten MotionX GPS, very good app indeed if you don't need to see a map to record your route.
