The process is the goal.

Dude, if you're in good enough shape to run that far that fast, you're probably not burning calories like a normal human.

Maybe calorie burn was reduced because of the altitude. Or wait, was this a 305? Maybe the guy wearing the watch had a lower HR than we might expect from a person running, erm, doing a marathon...

It's a 5k. It hurt like hell...then I tried to pick it up. The end.

Shoot, I just figured the 87 calories was in the little cup of coke he was sipping along the way.

Yeah and I carb loaded for it too. My weight loss plan isn't working out. Big grin

Please please please. While the cruise ship is moving through the ocean, go run some 5-10 laps around the ship's deck, then upload the tracks to motionbased and post the activity link here. I am dying to see how that would look on a map...

Meh. The ship's speed (~14 mph) >> my speed so the map isn't that interesting. The Captain refused to slow down for this demonstration Wink

But the speed/pace graph is kinda cool, if you don't average data points. This is a 352-yd (5 laps/mile) track. Actual distance run was 4 miles. Also HR bumped up a bit shortly after upwind legs (into a 25-knot wind) and recovered after tailwind legs. Geek paradise.
