Didn't do any exercise over the weekend oh and I must be punished.. lol

Spud... how the HELL di you do 11 miles in 30 mins??????
I just did...
5.48m distance
30.33 mins
20.5 calories burnt

admittedly I did get sick of being sat on a bike.. so I took the seat and the handle bars off it and sat on the sofa playing xbox and drinking a cup of soup whilst cycling away... but surely that still counts?? :rotfl:

I can do about 8 miles in 30 minutes on my cross trainer (basically a stand up bike with arm-ey bits ).. okay let me rephrase that, I can do about 4 miles in 15 minutes because by then I'm dying of exhaustion, so theoretically I'd do 8 miles in 30 minutes. The 4 miles burns about 150 cals or so says my cross trainer.

According to this site, you burned way more than 20 calories

I proper went for it - tried to go as fast as I could and was really out of breath when I finished

My DS did 6 miles in 30 minutes, 220 calories so I think you did 205 calories, not 20.5

I've just come in from school, and DD has challenged me to another half hour :rolleyes:

I was absolutely tired out this morning, but did manage to drag myself and the kids out for a walk in the rain - we walked the scenic (lol...that's a joke round here) route to town and then had a walk round and came back home, which took about 2 hours 15 minutes. Then I went to my naughty friend's house who made me eat 2 miniature scones with jam and cream!

Annoyingly, she had a baby 2 months after me, and is back to being slim and toned, but as a lot of her weight loss is due to the stress of her husband leaving her whilst pregnant :mad: I don't envy her. She's lovely too, he must be absolutely crazy. :rolleyes:
