Methodology and assumptions
- Start from step-derived distance using personalized stride assumptions.
- Apply pace and weight context to derive time and calorie implications.
- Surface equivalent outcomes in both imperial and metric units.
Assumptions
- • Results are estimates and may vary by gait, terrain, and sensor quality.
- • Pace defaults to moderate unless you choose another scenario.
- • Consistency over weeks is more meaningful than one-day outliers.
