Hi guys - I did run2 of week 1 today. Felt good! I'm using the Endomondo app to keep note of the distances etc, and it also calculates calories. It says I did 344 calories though, which seems high for 18 mins brisk walking and 8 mins of fairly gentle jogging. What do people think?

THanks,
Helen.

    I think Endomondo includes ALL calories burned, including the ones you'd burn anyway if you had been napping on the couch. I've found that MFP's numbers area lot more accurate for me.
