This morning I finally used my ipod nano properly. I thought. I ran for 20 minutes (uphill, in the snow) with Una, made my way from one side of our mountain to the other (around the base, not over), and then walked for 10 minutes, briskly, you know, to burn maximum calories.
Now, I know I'm not the fastest runner in the world.
But this is ridiculous.
According to the Nano, my pace was a 62 minute mile. I ran .54 miles and burned 53 calories.
Oh, I pray this is wrong.

Sorry - I have a feeling that is correct - I felt the same way when I had done a 45 minute work-out on the elliptical varying my pace and my trainer said you couldn't really count on the calorie count being very accurate - probably lower than it states!!! Depressing!!! but all is not lost since it does have something to do with increasing your metabolism, plus your mental outlook - forget the data - you had a great beginning to your morning - up and in the fresh air, Una loved it, and those muscles are being challenged again. Go for it!!! keep on running.
oh this made me laugh so hard. not AT you of course. it's just so funny. remember- running mountains is far different than flat lands. even if the distance is shorter the exertion is much greater, so i promise you, you burned more than 50 calories, or whatever it was. i love you!
