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.

I'm not totally sure on the route of by heart, but I do know the area so I could revise it.
that tool thingy is actually quite cool. also nice that we get the hill over with straight away and the majority of the run is downhill.
will you be able to follow this off by heart?

What do you think?

If you click on route profile tool it gives you some really cool statistics about the whole route e.g. the length of the longest uphill.

Its not necessarily, just an idea to see what I could do!
In regards to the elevation I'm not sure if you can view it, its not too bad, uphill and long downhill at the beginning.
is this the one we will be doing?
also, is there anywhere i can look at the elevation for this route?
