My father has a good habit of getting up early in the morning and going out for a walk with our pet ‘Sharp.’ Both have a good chemistry and they stroll for more than half an hour everyday. But he never knew what the amount of calories he was burning and what distance he walked actually. One day I suddenly had an idea of gifting him something which would be really useful to him.
