Gmaps Pedometer Counts For You
My husband is in love with Google Maps. I don't think he'd drive anywhere without checking the traffic and comparing routes. Me?
Website Of The Day: Gmaps-Pedometer.com
It looks like I am just another one of millions of Americans that thinks I am getting a lot more physical exercise than I really am. Gmaps Pedometer allows you to record your daily run, the walk to Starbucks or your walk to your favorite bookstore on the Google map and then gives you the total distance, mile markers and even a calorie counter breakdown based on your weight.
I learned my favorite running path along the Marina Green in San Francisco is 1.24 miles (there and back) and burns 108 calories at my body weight, whereas my walk to the bus stop from the office is 0.11 miles and burns 10 calories (it seems like so much longer when I'm lugging my purse!)
FitSugar says we should all be taking 6,000 steps a day for health and 10,000 for weight-loss...so can I call myself a healthy geek if I start plotting out all my major activity?

Running Tip: Keep Track of Your Mileage
If you run for fun or just to stay healthy, you probably aren't too concerned about how many miles you rack up, but you should be. Not to brag to your friends and family, but to help figure out when you need to purchase new shoes. You should be springing for new sneaks after you've completed between 300 and 400 miles.
