Does anyone know if ice skating is as good of a cardio workout as running?

    I think that depends on how good you are at it. I would suggest it is similar to inline skating. Maybe between walking and running for cardio workout.

    Yes ice skating is good, I went ice skating with my friends the other night for my first time, and i skated for 2 hours a total of 120 minutes. Doing ice skating alone burnt 963 calories which was a huge accomplishment for me.
