This is an alternative to [[Running Efficiency Calculator]] and uses age, gender, and weight to calculate Calories consumed, and therefore the absolute efficiency. While this is more impressive and allows for comparison between runners, it makes quite a few assumptions in the calculations. If you know your VO<sub>2</sub>max, this calculation becomes somewhat more accurate, but should still be considered only a rough approximation.
