The second leg of my UK to Japan trip retraces almost all of the route to Valsgarth from Thurso, however on the Shetlands it goes along the west coast of the last island rather than the east.

After reaching Thurso, it goes left and heads down mountainous Scottish countryside down to Glasgow and Ayr, before taking the coastal road down to Cairnryan and taking the Stena Line ferry to Belfast.

The route then takes the coastal road down Northern Ireland at first, before heading further inland and crossing the border into the Republic of Ireland. It ends in Dublin, where we stop off for a few days before starting Leg 3.

About the Calorie Calculator

Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
