    I had to map the route myself as both strava and komoot stopped navigating so it didnt come out the route i did. It was a lovely walk. started around 10.05am at the car park, and got back at the car park at 2.45pm. so 4hrs 40 mins. wore waterproofs as sky looked like it could rain. listened to sue from wiltshire radio all the way around. stopped a small sparrow hawk killing a crow.. i saw the crows in the air, it was only when i went to turn down into alton barnes village i saw the struggle, i shoed it away and the crow and sparrow hawk went there seperate ways. i felt good i'd saved a life. i hoped the crow wouldnt die of shock or disease. the sparrow hawk flew back into the open old barn. i saw lots of cows in huge cow shed at bottom of pewsey vale, i was communicating with some at the front who where watching me. i felt sorry for them all copped up close. i bet they've been in there all winter.. trapped... i felt bad for them.. but also helpless to help. i hoped they would be able to go out into the fields soon.

    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.
