Nike + Running App

Does anyone use the Nike + Running app and if so, do you know if the number of calories burned calculated is accurate? I've been relying on that becuase I don't know how else to track the number of calories I burn when walking/jogging.

    I use the App, and have a HRM. The calories burned are actually pretty accurate. If anything, they are usually less than what my HRM tells me.

    I used it for the first time yesterday along with my HRM. It was within 30 calories of the HRM, the Nike+ App being higher. I thought the time seemed off yesterday. It had all my splits being sub 9:00, but my legs certainly didn't feel like I was running that quickly.
