Exercise posting help

When I exercise I don't know how to post it as the options are not there to figure it out.

Typically I walk between 2 to 3 kilometers a day in about 30 minutes.

Is there a way to enter this form of exercise? The only option I see is in miles, which I have not used in 30+ years, and at a set speed, as opposed to being able to enter time and distance. I think the option of time and distance fields for walking should be considered, or if it is already can I be pointed to it?

Cheers

    Kph x 0.621371=Mph x 1 hr/60 minutes

    you are walking 4-6kph.

    so on days you walk 2km, you are doing about 2.5 miles per hour for 30 minutes. On days you walk three, you are walking 3.5-ish milesper hour for 30 minutes.

    Thank you, your help is most appreciated. :)

    I just wish the system was more adaptable and didn't require me to do the maths in advance. A form with fields for distance and time should be feasible. Also, some metric options for exercise would be nice like are available in the food area.

    Cheers and thanks again.
