Running Routes at WalkJogRun

What are WalkJogRun Groups?

WalkJogRun Groups are a way to find routes contributed by people you know and trust and are free to join. It's a pretty vague definition deliberately because there are so many organizations who want to let their members share routes with each other. Here are some ideas:

  • Race participants
  • Charity organizations
  • School teams
  • Running or walking buddies
  • Running clubs or walking clubs

How Can I Add My Own Group?

For just $10 (US) per month, WalkJogRun Groups are the perfect tool for recruiting new members and getting your group on the map. WalkJogRun gets an average of 110,000 visitors every month so you can expect plenty of people to find out about your group.

If you'd like to see your own group here on WalkJogRun please email us.

Calories for different sports

I often get requests to show calorie requirements for different sports in addition to running. If anyone has a generic formula for estimating calories for any other sports please let me know but it must be based on weight and distance.

I looked around but there appear to be many contradicting sources for most sports, especially cycling where hills and wind play a big part. With that in mind if you do provide a formula, please let me know your source so I can take a look. The idea is not to be 100% accurate but at least to give people a rough idea.

For reference, the formula I use for running is based on the Runners World formula:

calories = weight in kg * distance in km * 1.036
