We may be in our thirties but we still know how to hang with the cool kids over at Facebook and you can too. We've added a WalkJogRun Facebook Fan Page where you can get alerts about upcoming WalkJogRun events, catch the news as it happens rather than wait for the monthly newsletter or just chat with other WalkJogRun fans and make friends.
Become a fan of WalkJogRun here.
We run this site in our spare time so to call it a monthly newsletter would be a stretch but we certainly try to send one each month. The newsletter is packed with tips for using the site, announcements about new features or things we think you'll be interested in related to Walking, Jogging or Running (or any of the other sports you do).
How does it work?
Click on the map to set a starting point. Then keep clicking from point to point to draw a route. Click on any of the markers for your route and see how far this point is from the start and what the estimated time would be for a given speed.
How do I delete a route?
Click on the pin on the map for a route and you will see a link "Suggest Deletion". Click that link and complete the form to let me know. Once I have reviewed the request, the route will be deleted. If you are a site member with a login, you have the power to delete your own routes at will.
How do I change the speed?
If you are looking at a route and click on the start or end pin and then click "alter speed" you should get a popup asking you for the new speed. You don't need to enter the mph part, just type 6 and hit ok and it should recalculate all the times on the right hand side and also on the start and end pin. If this isn't working please let me know which web browser you are using and I can try to track down the problem!
How do I claim a route?
You can claim a route to add it to the list of routes you added. When you are done plotting your route, click on the last pin of the route (usually green) and you should see the option to "Save your route". If you are logged in it will save it with your username, if not you will have to login and then "Claim this route". To claim a route, once you are logged in, you must be looking at an area with a series of route markers. Click on the route marker for the route you want to claim and select "Claim this route". As long as the route isn't already claimed by someone else it will be marked as yours and a message on the right hand side will tell you so.
How do I print a route?
On the subject of printing - I am limited by Google since their license only allows you to print the maps from their site, not all the sites that use their maps like WalkJogRun so they make it hard to print. One way around it is to hold down the alt key on your keyboard and hit the Print Screen button usually in the top right of your keyboard). Then open up something like Microsoft Word and go to Edit > Paste to see your map inserted into the document. It's not ideal but it may help. To make the map larger, change the page orientation in Microsoft Word to landscape before you Edit > Paste.
WalkJogRun supports exporing to both Google Earth so you can watch a virtual flythrough of your route or export to GPX format which can in turn be imported into GPS devices like Garmin Forerunners.
What is Google Earth?
Google developed a multi-purpose tool you can download to view many types of data integrated with maps, like pushpins of the big cities etc.
How does WalkJogRun work with Google Earth?
There are two ways you can use WalkJogRun with Google Earth. The first is the simplest and only requires you to have Google Earth installed on your computer. Whenever you browse routes on WalkJogRun.net you will see a link on the right hand side "Export Route". Click on this link and it opens a bubble to ask which export format you would like to use. Click on the KML link (Google Earth format) and it asks you if you would like to save the route or open it with Google Earth.
The second way is to add the Google Earth WalkJogRun Integration View. You still need to have Google Earth installed but if you click on this link, you will be prompted to save or open. Either is fine and it adds a new view to your Google Earth when it opens. Whenever you move the map around, you see WalkJogRun routes appear on the map as push pins. If you click on the pin, you see a link which will open the route directly in Google Earth.
What is GPX?
GPX is a common format for GPS devices and GPS programs to handle GPS information. Common running applications are the Garmin GPS devices. For a complete list of supported devices visit the GPX applications page.
How does WalkJogRun work with GPX?
Whenever you browse routes on WalkJogRun.net you will see a link on the right hand side "Export Route". Click on this link and it opens a bubble to ask which export format you would like to use. Click on the GPX link and it asks you if you would like to save the route or open it with an application on your computer.

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
