Hi All, I had a quick question or maybe an issue. When I run on the tredmill for 40 minutes, I have had an average pace of say 3.5MPH. When I go an log this into Cardio work on MFP, it asks for the time and then auto-populates the calories burned.

So for today I worked out as mentioned above and the calorie count that auto-populated was 800+. The tredmill told me 290... I trust the tredmill to be more accurate (correctly or incorrectly).

So why is there such a discrepancy between the numbers? Has anyon eelse noticed this or can they explain it for me? Just curious...
