Who's getting the most exercise out there? I know it's not me, but I'm curious to see how many KM's (whatever that means  Roll Eyes) you guys have walked.

Scroll down under your profile. First badge is for 100 km, so it will tell you how close you are so far

Yeah, I'm far behind you guys. But I thought it was a cool idea for them to add this. At the very least, it's a record of exercise.

I'm fortunate enough that my place of employment highly encourages two 15 minute walks per day and walking at lunchtime. They bought us all Fitbits a few months ago and we have weekly team contests (we all hate the girl who was a runner in college...ha ha).  But yeah, the Fitbit in combination with Pokémon GO has been great for me.  The wife has noticed the weightloss and I feel better. More tired in the evenings, but my sleep is definitely better.  I'd encourage anyone interested in using this app as a motivation tool to go out and get the cheapest Fitbit Flex, which can be had for under $100. It actually tracks a ton of stuff for the price (just doesn't have the clock face). Well worth the price for your health.

Just got my first pokemon into a gym.

How come no one said you can collect in game currency for that!

Do i get XP for any battles my pokemon wins?
Also what happens when the gym gets defeated?
Do i get my pokemon back?

Yes. And as you mentioned you get coins for defending the gym. I have run a few gyms but have never gotten this bonus.

Also what happens when the gym gets defeated?
Do i get my pokemon back?

Yes, they'll automatically be returned to you when they are defeated.

To collect he bonus go into the shop.

I thought the icon up top would give some discount or extra if you made real world purchases. Since i finally tried training and got into a gym i figured i would check it back out.

Fired it up before my drive home in the hopes of grabbing a little more egg mileage.

There was an update. Checking it out now that i am home looks like it was cosmetic mostly.
Pokedex is fixed now and step counter went from everything being 3 steps away to 0 steps away lol

EDIT
Also there was a new warning screen after launch about not playing in "dangerous" areas.

If you haven't seen it on the front page yet, our Playcast just released a special episode on Pokemon GO. Please listen and give us your thoughts.
