How many calories did i burn today? How many will i burn in DC? PLEASE ANSWER!?

So today I worked at a kids camp and as the leader i had to entertain them. The 2nd graders chose to play “spider in the web”, the third graders wanted Capture the Flag, and the fourth graders wanted Simon Says. If i played “spider in the web” for 10 minutes, sprinting, capture the flag 20 minutes sprinting, and simon says for 30 minutes, then thirty minutes of miscellaneous random walking, jogging, and about 10-15 minutes of sprinting, how many calories did i burn? I’m 5’6 and 102 lbs, don’t say that i shouldn’t worry about weight right now though because i’m just in this debate with my friend, he says i probably didn’t burn anything when i said ‘at least i’m exercising!’ so there. Also, i’m goign to WAshington DC tomorrow and we’ll be touring all day (about 12 hours) how many calories will i be burning daily with that? Thank you! (Mature answers only——-> also no mean answers.)

    I am guessing that you burned around 600+ calories so you were definitely getting a workout and in DC, walking for 12 hours will burn about 1,500 calories (almost 1/2 of a pound)!! You probably will not be walking around the whole time though. You can easily calculate your caloric expenditure by using my tool:

    Probably an extra 200-300 calories in that hour. Just being alive burns calories too, a lot of people don’t get that.
