Statistics

Calculations are based on your weight of 70 kgs, a walking speed of "Typical speed - 3 mph", a cycling speed of "Leisure cycling - 8 mph" and a trail distance of 7.4 miles.

Walking

After walking 7.4 miles you will have burnt 604 calories. Assuming a constant pace and no breaks it will take you 2 hours 28 minutes to cover the distance and you will have taken roughly 17020 steps.

More calories per mile are burnt at very low speeds as you do not have momentum to carry you between strides. Walking at high speeds will burn more calories too as arm swinging and the longer stride use more muscle groups. Those extra muscles burn up extra calories with each step. Carrying a rucksack and walking uphill will also increase your calorie burn.

Rewards

    5.7 Tunnock's Teacakes or

    7.1 Jammie Dodgers or

    2.4 jam donuts or

    5 packets of Pork Scratchings (20g) or

    3.3 pints of ale or

    6.8 glasses of wine (120ml)

without feeling any guilt whatsoever.

Cycling

After 7.4 miles of cycling you will have burnt 308 calories. The trip will take 55 minutes to complete assuming no breaks are taken.
