Wondering how to log it

I spent the better part of 2 hours shoveling red clay/dirt into a truck bed and then shoveling it back out into our driveway trenches. (bad rain storms lately) Should I log it as shoveling snow? I'm going to log it someway, because my wrist is weak as anything and I'll be feeling this tomorrow. Well... I have been wanting to get some upper body workouts in.... lol (ouch)

    Sounds like a reasonable way to estimate. I would log about half the time it took you so you don't overestimate the calorie burn.
