Elevation listed differently on TrainingPeaks than mapmyride

Hi, I mapped the same ride on mapmyride.com and on trainingpeaks.com
the Mapmyride route showed 2680 ft of gain,
the trainingpeaks route showed 7840 ft of gain.
I re-mapped it several times to double check and it is the same route.

Am I misinterpreting the information? Is TP's map data just that much higher-resolution that MMR is averaging over lots of the altitude change?
Has anyone experienced this issue? Which is more accurate? Attached is a screenshot of the route and websites.
Thanks
