I read that for every Big Mac you eat you would need to walk 9 miles to work off the calories. One Mac could change your exercise routine drastically!

One Big Mac (with cheese) contains about 700 calories. You burn about 500 calories an hour, walking. An average walking pace is about 3 miles per hour, so you have to walk about 4.5 miles to burn off the calories from a Big Mac.

Your right. Thanks for the memory stimulus. The article I read talked about eating 2 Big Macs. Sure would make for an interesting commercial. Instead of the "I'd walk a mile for a camel" how about "I NEED to walk 9 miles for 2 Big Macs!"
