    I try to log seprately my running and walking. I run with my daughter but she walks a lot and then I leave her to walk at about half way and run the rest. We do run a little in the beginning, but if we walk for 15 or 30 minutes total, I log it seperate. You may still have burned more calories though because of the cool down and warm up from going back and forth, but I still try to go with what I can just figure in my head.
    And since I have been re-training to run, this week has been the big breakthrough week. After over three weeks I have good controled breathing and not so hard to keep running without slowing to walk. I never thought I would get to that point again.
