Anyone understand why there is a large calorie count disparity in what Garmin FR calculates (1080 calories consumed) and when I manually create the same exercise profile under Garmin Activites in Garmin Connect? My FR320 gave me 1080 after a 90 min. vigorous hilly xc ski, but creating the same profile activity manually, the software in Garmin Connect gives me 1500 calories. Appreciate help in understanding why the big difference... thanks!

    possibly related: my FR15 does't have a bike mode. So in GC I edit a bike ride that is sees as a "run" and turn it back into a "bike".... they sync with this and MFP results in double entries. I end up doing a lot of editing and deleting to simply sync a bike ride.
