Calories calculated using METs
The calorie calculator has been updated to use the metabolic equivalent (MET) to calculate the calories burned during exercise. The calories burned are based on activity, distance, time, and weight - so all of those factors have to be present in an exercise activity for the log to calculate calories. Currently calories are calculated for walking, running, biking, and swimming.

Running log: using online versus Excel
Back in 2006 before I created LogYourRun I was training for the Saint Louis half marathon and using an excel spreadsheet that I got from one of my friends to keep track of my mileage and running times. The spreadsheet worked great but I quickly found that when training it is also very useful to keep track of pains and aches so you can correlate pain with the amount of effort put in. I also found that I often wanted to enter my data when I was not near the computer that had my spreadsheet on it.

So I created a very simple online running log to keep track of my mileage, time, and injuries. This way I could see my data from any computer and I could visualize the data any way I wanted. Since 2006 I have continuously been adding new features to LogYourRun, largely based on great suggestions that have come from the users of the site.
