I agree, there needs to be a way to add additional activities like you can food. Try just using the running as a calculation of what your doing. I stay on the low side of my calculations. ie. When I use the eliptical machine for 30 mins, the machine says I burned 400 cal.

I use the running at moderate levels for an adjusted time period to equate to 75% what the eliptical machine said that I burned. (I dont trust the machine as much as I have been trusting FitDay.) By staying at 75% of what the machine is saying im erroring on the side of pushing myself and not giving myself a false sense of accomplishment.
