    I basically just add the minutes of what Im doing. So for instance W1D1 has 12 minutes of walking (during) and 8 minutes of Jogging (during) and it also has 5 minutes of walking (warm-up) and about 5 of walking (cooldown). I separate it into two exercises walking/jogging and add it that way. It isn't 'exactly since rolling from one exercise to the other also has some calorie burn but I think its close enough.

    If you are using a heart rate monitor, I would put it in as "C25K" or "run/walk" with the calorie total. If it isn't on there you have to put it in yourself.

    Are you doing it on a treadmill? If so, you can create your own exercise in the database and log in your calories burned and the minutes you exercised. That's what I've been doing. If you are on the treadmill, be sure to program in your age and weight also.

    Hope that helps!

    I use Nike+ so I just log it in my journal as 'interval running' and manually put in the calories
