    The most accurate way to track calorie burn is with a heart rate monitor. Everything else is just an estimate.

    I use Runkeeper to track my miles. Calorie wise it is close to what MFP estimates if you manually enter. I just use them as a guideline. Like Carson said, HRM is most accurate. Everything else is just an estimate.
