Okay, here's a thought experiment. How much energy (in kCal) did you think Kid Flash expended in his cross-country trek in Coldhearted?

Assumptions:
 * 1) Kid Flash, at 16 years old, has an average weight for a person of his age group - 140 pounds, or 63 kg.
 * 2) Kid Flash took the interstate, so we can't measure the direct distance. Let's assume the driving distance between Seattle and Boston is 3,000 miles (4800 km), as Batman said.
 * 3) You'll have to factor in some friction from snow, as well as heat loss from the cold weather and wind chill
 * 4) He exerted himself more heavily in the battle against Vandal Savage, for 15 minutes.
