I completed a 100-mile race (my first finish!) and tried to manually enter the race stats. Garmin Connect automatically calculated the calorie burn. When I tried to submit the entry, I got an error message that states "Your 18280 value is not within permissible limits". The site did the math; not me.
Why is it not "permissible" to burn 18,280 calories? Why set a limit on that? The limit should be removed in order to allow more accurate data.
