Logging misc exercise

Normally I wouldn't care to call my exercise calories anything but I joined this month's challenge so I need to give what I do a name. Today it was 605 exercise calories (according to my Fitbit) between mucking stalls, building and basic watering and feeding livestock (it was a light day). How do I go about logging this for the challenge?

    "Cleaning, vigorous"? "Horse grooming"? "Carpentry, General"?

    Note that you can create and log your own exercise, so you could log it as "Stable Cleaning and Large Animal Care" or something. You have a calorie estimate, so finding an existing entry to get a calorie estimate isn't necessary.

    I create most of the exercise I log, when I have a reasonable source for a calorie estimate.

    You can create an exercise. My suggestion would be to wear a heart monitor with calorie counter then log your own exercise.
