Hey, great chart. Based on the chart I burn about an average of 850
cal/day with training runs of about 8.5 min miles for an average of
about an hour per day. A little more on interval day when the pace
quickens.

What the chart doesn't mention is the metabolic impact. If you run
consistently (or do any aerobic exercise) at a high rate, your
metabolism alters so that you will burn more calories when not
running.

I have a Garmin 205 that estimates calories burned. It works ok on flat
ground with no wind. If you go out and back on the same track it comes close
estimating calories for hills and wind. What's uncanny about the GPS is you
can review your track of high speed turns and sharpen them up even better.
The GPS even works indoors (not everywhere, but much better than older GPS
units).
