Does Walking Count?

This morning I walked my normal 2.8 miles. I didn't run this afternoon because we decided to trek to Disney World for some fun in the sun. I thought it would be interesting to track our movement at Disney World and in the three hours we were there we walked almost exactly 2 miles. I was expecting that number to be significantly higher. I do have to say that this was not a normal Disney trip - we walked in went straight to the kiddie rids: we rode Dumbo, Snow White, It's a Small World then Winnie the Pooh and the race cars then Buzz Light Year and then we left. Those rides are all in the same general area. Next time we do Disney World for a whole day or even more than a couple miles I am going to track our walking again. My guess is that a normal day easily nets between 5-7 miles walking - especially those days when I'm running back and forth to the baby care center to feed and change Amelia in between rides.

Last night I ran sprints. I think I mentioned it was hard, but it is worth mentioning again, sprints are hard. I need to do that more often.
