Another workout logged. 9 miles easy 75-80% mhr. Question, Does spending all day shoveling snow and walking around count for anything? What if I moved with the shovel quickly getting my heart rate up.? Sorry, sounds screwy I know it's just the weather finally getting to me now!

PM-5 miles easy on the loop. 65-70% mhr.

I think shoveling snow should count for crosstraining miles. I asked myself the same question you did.

From Brent on Wed, Jan 30, 2008 at 23:03:10

Darkhorse, no doubt, runners need to run, not move moutains of snow every 48 hours. We can't risk injury moving snow?

I think I'm going to invest in some snowshoes perhaps.

Steve it counts because your heart rate goes up while throwing the heavy snow.

Your definitely staying busy. If you want you can come up and shovel my driveway? :-)

If you ran with the shovel it would. Just moving snow will not get your sustained HR even into 10:00 mile range.
