Wow - that adds up. Explain the dancing portion. - Louis Gray

12 miles of dance = longest moonwalk ever ! - Mo Kargas

http://www.beantowncamp.com/. It's a lindy hop (swing dancing) camp held a bit north of Boston and it attracts people from many U.S. states and other countries. Around 4-5 hours of classes a day, communal (and yummy) meals, and then dancing from 9pm to 2am or so each night. And this ain't your father's leisurely ballroom dancin' either ;). And heh, Mo... that would be a heck of a moonwalk :P - Adam Lasnik

And the walking is just to and from meals, our dorms, the classes, the beach, etc. :). Oh, and I'm very proud of myself: I brought my laptop but have spent <20 minutes a day on it and have done not a jot of work :). - Adam Lasnik

but fun? - Anne Bouey

oh yes! I'm getting to dance with amazingly talented and fun people. I'm likely losing a pound or more of fat while gorging on ice cream and brownies and pizza. And I'm getting a good brain workout, too. Being a lead is hard: listening to the music, thinking of the next move, responding to the follow's movement, keeping here away from painful movable and immovable objects, and so on. But it's hard AND fun! I recommend swing dancing to anyone and everyone :) - Adam Lasnik

Sounds like a complete workout - Mo Kargas

Indeed! This video should give you an idea - http://www.youtube.com/watch.... Many of the folks in it are my instructors at this camp :) - Adam Lasnik
