So, I just started using the app MapMyWalk and its awesome! I was wondering if anyone else is using it? It counts how far you go, how long it takes and how many calories burned. It has settings for walking, hiking, biking, running etc. You should friend me! Robi Sifers

How accurate do you think map my walk is? I'm only asking as the same time and exercise seems to have different calorie count on myfitnesspal? Cheers

That is a good question, I am not sure. If I had to guess I think I would say maybe the times and calories are different on myfitnesspal, because the information is entered by anyone, kind of like wikipedia. You can enter how many calories for whatever exercise and anyone else who enters the same exercise will get the same choices including whether to use the previous entered calorie amount or enter their own and they may not be accurate. Like one day I played hopscotch with my kids for an hour and went to enter it and it was not listed. So I looked up ho many calories burned for playing hopscotch for 30 min and found it somewhere on google and entered it in manually on myfitnesspal, so now my results are saved for the next person who plays hopscotch lol. I am not sure if you can do this with mapmywalk. Either way, I know I am being way more active than ever before; so it is an improvement for me, even if it's not 100% accurate.
