So last year at the 2006 Walk For Hunger, Boston had 43,000 people participate.
The walk is 20 miles long
On average, the human body will burn 100 Calories/mile.
20 * 100 * 43000 = ...
That's EIGHTY SIX MILLION calories.
That's 5,000,000 sticks of celery
That's 860,000 bowls of Special K
That's 430,000 Subway Ham Sandwiches
That's 159,300 McDonald's Big Macs
What a counter-productive way of feeding the hungry...
