jogging with stroller= how many calories?

I have been trying to figure out how to log in my jogging with stroller exercise, but all I can find is "jogging with wheelchair." Does anyone know how to calculate this? I have searched the web too so I could just design my own exercise but I can't find it there either, or even a way to freehand the math involved. Walking with stroller is easy to see, but what about jogging? I am pushing 25lbs of stoller and 16lbs of baby so i want to factor that in. Plus I am now getting ready to do a 5k for the March of Dimes in September, so I will be logging this in often from now on. If anyone knows the math formula that inputs your current weight + weight pushing + time I would be so grateful!! Thanks team

I think the easiest way of getting this information is to invest in a heart rate monitor...once you do, you will never rely on MFP's exercise values as they are usually way too generous compared to the Heart rate monitor readings

Is there a type you would recommend?
