I got a pedometer that tracks distance and time, so I can tell for example last night I walked two miles in 34 minutes..

That's just under 4 mph, so I figure I burned around 170 calories. Pretty weak, I usually go alot faster but I've got serious DOMS from a leg workout two days ago!!

It also has a pulse reader built in which is very cool, you can check periodically for HIIT to see if you are keeping your heartrate in the right range.
