I went to put in my walk to work this morning and have no idea how I figure out my calories. Any advice?

    Generally you will burn around 100 calories per mile....regardless of walking or running...that's for the average 150lb male though, I can't remember for women. I think it's like 88 calories though.

    About how fast (leisurely, or brisk?) were you walking and for how long?

    I walk for about 15 min and it's 1.4km. (0.89 miles) It's not hard (I can talk)

    You'll burn roughly 80 calories a mile then I would guess.

    Thanks! Better than the 1 I was putting in as I had no idea what I was burning.
