    ARE YOU WEARING YOGAPANTS WHEN YOU DO THIS OR ARE YOU WEARING REGULAR PANTS? WHAT ABOUT YOUR SHOES? ITS IMPORTANT TO KNOW WHEN EXCORSISING.

    Oh okay. Well I have no idea. If you do the math, you're looking at 2.1 cal per minute per mile on the first one. You would need a second set of data for miles, minutes, and calories burned in order to develop some sort of mathematical relationship on how many you burn per minute per mile etc. Otherwise it's just based on assumptions.

    Is this a trick question? Is this the speed of the demon/spirit that you are trying to exorcise and you are trying to catch it? :bigsmile:
