Walking on the flat is said to be 100 cals per mile time weight/140 lb.
So you are 150 cal/mile on flat, and you did 4 miles. that would be 600
cal even on the flat. And this was considerably harder than that. so
1000 is quite plausible.

100 cals per mile for walking is too high an estimate. I know I walk to
work 1.25 miles every morning at 15 min miles and according to Fitday,
I only burn 57 cals and I weigh more than 140 pounds.
100 cals per mile for running yes, walking, no.
