Calories burned cross country running

Hiya
I was wondering if anyone has seen any solid data which would allow me to calculate the calories I burn running cross country. I am starting to do a lot of it and I am pretty convinced I burn (perhaps a lot) more calories going up and down muddy hills than running down a road. I can't find any data about this though.
Cheers
Dave

I agree! Yes running on steep inclines will burn more calories, but how much more depends on many factors.0
