Subject:  Snow Blowing?
Well to much snow to shovel today so took out the snow blower, it still took me 35 minutes to clear the sidewalks and is a bit of work I tried to find it listed but it wasnt so I put:

- Shoveling Snow - Light
35 min

However it says 726 calories, I sort of think this is off but I cant be certain anyone know?

The number of calories burned by an activity is directly related to the burn rate of the exercise and your current weight.

However... I noticed that you said "snow blower". You should use the activity named "Operating Snow Blower" instead of shovelling. The burn rate is significantly lower. (After all... You're doing less work! :-) )
