Using MFP, Runkeeper and Fitbit simultaneously

Hey everyone,
I was just wondering what would be the most accurate way to sync MFP, Runkeeper and Fitbit? As of right now, Fitbit just adds my calorie adjustment into MFP everyday but I am looking for a way to track my runs as well. I currently do not have Runkeeper syncing to anything as I am not sure how it is going to work with everything...
Thanks,
Derek

I do not think you would want to double count your runs. I would choose one app to sync to MFP and leave it at that.
I personally use Fitbit to track my calorie burn estimates. I've synced it to MFP. I use Strava to track my runs - that's where I get data on mileage, speed, etc. But it isn't synced to MFP in terms of my calorie burns.

Don’t link Runkeeper to anything. It will make a mess on mfp (which can only effectively handle one linked activity-related app/device at a time).
I have a linked Fitbit and just track my runs separately. I use Runkeeper and Garmin for that.3 -
Thank you both for the advice! Looks like I will just continue to sync MFP and Fitbit and use Runkeeper separately to track my runs.
Cheers!3
