I don't even pay attention to calories on those apps. I assume they are rough ballpark numbers anyway.

I think you are correct. I don't think they are exact but they give you a decent idea of how many calories you have burned as long as you input your info.

3.5 trail yesterday afternoon. I struggled bad. Humidity was up and it was pretty warm. 7:38 pace.

2.77 @ 9.13 pace. Started raining/lightning had to stop Also running after a night of beer drinking and staying up late does not a happy run make. But that's obvious.

2.41 miles at only 12.39 pace, however I only ran for 20 minutes and had 10 minutes of walking, five on each end. The second five were stupid slow.

I'm still on track for my goal.

Struggled? I can't complete ONE mile at that pace.

 

[YankeeVol]

What is a plate carrier?

Like a bullet proof vest

 

[tri_vol]

Gotcha. why are you going to wear it?

It was hot and humid that day. It was all I could do to finish those without walking.

 

[YankeeVol]

Gotcha. why are you going to wear it?

Why not?

I like making things more difficult

Lol. yesterday this guy ran a trail marathon with 3500'+ of elevation gain plus a hilly marathon on Saturday. he was last yesterday but props for finishing.

amazingly he wasn't the craziest runner. another guy ran a 50 miler on Saturday then marathon on Sunday.

Hey everyone, you might want to try running after a night of drinking and little sleep. It may help you.

Careful with that, it could be pretty bad on your joints if you don't build up to running with weights.

Also, 5.21 @ 9:16 pace.
