Artistic Roller Skating. Which exercise?

Hi

My daughter does artistic roller skating, just like ice skating but on skates!

Which exercise should I use to track things?  Running?

Thanks

Id suggest you use workout and then change the name in the app after the activity is done. You coukd choose either ice skating or roller skating from Fitbits list or yiu coukd creat your own custom activity (see below)

ADDING A CUSTOM ACTIVITY
First you have to know how many calories you burn in your activity. You can google calorie calculators

Then go to the Fitbit website Dashboard (not the app) and tap the top of the Recent Exercise tile. A little thing will drop down on the bottom of the tile. Tap See More which is on the right side. A new page comes up. Move right to the bottom of this new page to the box titled Activities which is on the right side at the bottom. On the bottom of this box, in blue and small print it says Create Custom Activity. Tap that and a box comes up. Put in the title of the Activity and then fill in the start time and duration of you latest session, fill in the calories burnt and hit log. You have now created your custom activity. Bit of a trial, but you only have to do it that way once.
