That's two pints a day burned off!
Sep. 25th, 2007 04:22 pmAccording to the Gmaps Pedometer, the walk from the flat to college is 2km, with a drop of 25m then a climb of 15m. (It takes me 20 mins, which ties with a walking pace of a bit more than 6 kph minus three major road crossings.)
More interstingly, it reckons that for someone of my weight the round trip should burn up about 440 kcal. If I manage to keep on with daily gym trips (and going to the gym adds another km onto my daily total in itself) then I ought to start shifting some of the weight that has crept back on over the next few months. As long, that is, as I don't go overboard on the numerous coffee shops I pass en route.
