Now I see it was 140 and 460cal/60 minutes which is about right. I figured you would burn between 230-280 for the trip at a moderate pace. Sorry for the confusion.
Just curious how did you figure your max HR?

From what I remember the medical formulation is 220 - (your age), but I didn't trust the default the system gave me so I went to a sports medicine doctor Wednesday morning and had a cardiovascular stress test done which is basically walking/running on a treadmill at inclines and speeds that are increased every 3 minutes for as long as you can hang. The doctor concluded that the 197 was accurate and that I am pretty healthy because I don't "redline" often - even went as far to call me an athlete.
I can scan the EKG if you want to see it.
Haha due to the concern of the calorie burn, I reset it.
It's now on the highest setting (Top) which is "You participate regularly in heavy physical exercise at least 5 times a week. E.g. you exercise to improve performance for competitive purposes."
