About Calorie Burn
This calculator estimates calories burned during running using the MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) method. MET values represent the energy cost of physical activities relative to resting metabolic rate.
Running MET values range from approximately 8.3 (slow jogging) to 14.5 (fast running). The exact value depends primarily on your running speed. Elevation gain increases calorie burn — we apply a 10% MET increase for every 100 meters of climbing.
While this provides a reasonable estimate, actual calorie burn varies based on individual factors including running economy, muscle mass, temperature, and terrain conditions.
