    3. Follow Steele Hill Rd. around. It'll curve right and there will be a road that goes to the left. Take the road that goes left. This will take you to the switchbacks. As you run up the road you will pass a Pavillion.
    4. Take the road to the left. Follow it and it should come out into an opening. Stay to the left. You'll follow this road around. It's been awhile since I ran this so right now all I can say is follow the road around and try not to get lost in the woods. An evil witch in a candy house lives back there somewhere. Eventually the road will come back out to the Pavillion.
    5. Follow it back out to Steele Hill Rd. and stay to the left. You will stay to the left, it'll take you up to the Eagle and down to Oneida St. On Oneida St. take a right.

    About the Calorie Calculator

    Our Calorie Calculator estimates how many Calories you will burn using Metabolic Equivalent (MET) values from Compendium of Physical Activities. The Compendium idenitifes the relative energy cost of undertaking various activities compared with doing nothing. We then combine this with your weight and the estimated duration of the activity, taking into account the length of the route and the hills involved, to estimate the total Calories burned.

    When selecting an Activity setting, select the speed you would normally travel at on flat ground.

    Please remember, the estimated number of Calories is just a guide and the actual number of Calories burned may vary depending on other factors such as weather and terrain.
