    I got stuck late last night at work and missed this run, so I left early today to make sure I got it in. Awesome run, did 1k repeats, felt great, happy with my pace. Total of 5 miles

    For week 2 I ran 36.25 miles for a total of 79.5. Did you get my message in your message box? Am not sure exactly how this works - still trying to figure it all out.

    Hi everyone - I wondered if you could help me!

    I usually run at a 9m an hour pace - I (according to this website) would burn 726cal on a 5 mile run!

    Only thing is, what if I do a run at the same pace but mainly uphill - surely i've burnt more calories?

    There is nothing on here for uphill running though?

    What should I put it as?

    Mike.

    (ps. Runners - feel free to add me as a friend!) :smile:

    yes I just responded (: sorry I missed it initially but the message was there.

    The most important information to report is how many miles you ran for the month so far.

    Example (the bolded part is the most important information).

    I ran X miles today, and my total so far is 80 miles for the month..

    So how you reported you progress initially was fine :smile:

    OK I will try to answer, unfortunately it is a loaded answer because it is really hard to give you an exact answer/or number because burn calories for running have many factors both individual/personal and environmental:

    e.g., your weight, your fitness level, and the intensity of the workout (e.g., your pace, and environmental factors - such as uphills , downhills and wind impacts the intensity of you work out). I believe that uphill and downhill (to the same level) is more intense that a falt course though... anyway the bottom line is that it gets complicated it you want to be exact!

    So, what most people do here, is to use a HRM or some other device (body bug) to monitor how hard you workout. Typically these devices account for fitness level and weight. It is still a rough guess.


    Guess I didn't answer your question, but I think getting a HRM simplifies guessing a bit and gives you some piece of mine (: maybe....
