I walk my pups 4x's a day about 15min each. Can I just log that as moderate walking dog, 60min?

    But of course! Why not? That's one of the reasons I let my son talk me into getting a dog...for the exercise. :wink:

    Good job on getting in 60 minutes a day!

    You can find out how far you are walking by using a pedometer, and then by timing yourself you can figure out what your pace is. Then you know what speed to put in when your logging your 60 minute walk. : )

    That's the way I do it. I don't walk a dog, but I have a 15 minute walk to & from the parking lot to my work. There is a shuttle, but I choose to get to work early enough to walk it briskly. I log 30 minutes of walking every day, plus anything more I do.

    Of course you can!!! It's excersise isn't it!!! Also, if you have a smart phone, you can find a TON of apps that will also track your walk, the speed, and even a rough estimate of calories you burn. I use Nike+GPS. It shows me everthing i just stated to you. Keep up the good work!!
