According to my watch I’m burning the same cals on a 2 mile interval run as I am a 2 mile walk?!

    Are you opening the exercise app on the watch before you do either? I did a crossfit class without "telling it" I was exercising, and it told me I burned like 110 calories, the next time I made sure to start the exercise app and then it said I burned almost 400. It has an outdoor walking setting, outdoor run, elliptical, etc. For crossfit I just go the "other" one, but I think just starting the app tells it to engage all the sensors.
