Dec 2008 11:13am, 10 Dec 2008 9 posts	Quote Pin Hi everyone. Does anyone here know how accurate the calorie counter is on the Garmin 305? On my last run - 9 miles - I, apparently, used 2,239 calories! I'm going to disappear at that rate. Using the HR monitor too. All user details have been entered and are correct, all other measured data appears correct e.g. distance, time, HR. thanks. Happy running.:-)
flanker Dec 2008 11:42am, 10 Dec 2008 9,397 posts	Quote Pin flanker reasonably accurate I believe, but it is only an estimate using a standard formula for disance, time and weight. I would have thought an individual's physiology would alkso have a bearing on how much energy the body was burning e.g. I woul dhave thought that 16 stone of muscles on the move would burn more than 8 stone of muscle with another 8 stone of fat attached since as well as being a weigh to be carried, the muscle is actively using energy. But I would have thought the number is accrate enough for most people.
