Are you a fan of Christmas comfort food but want to keep trim (whilst enjoying all the trimmings) during the festive period this year?

Crystal Ski Holidays have worked out how many calories we can work off in their interactive tool ‘Earn Your Après‘. Users can discover just how many hours they need to spend ice skating at Christmas markets in order to burn off their festive calorie intake.

• What Ice Skating Can Earn You:

• • Earn a glass of mulled wine every 19 minutes of ice-skating. That’s around three glasses every hour!
  • Burn off the same amount of calories as a festive pint in 14 minutes
  • Burn off every mince pie (217 calories) with 22 minutes of ice-skating
  • Enjoy a more creamy Christmas drink? Earn a glass of eggnog (342 calories) in 36 minutes on the ice rink

• For Him and For Her: Couples heading to Christmas Markets this festive season can do so guilt-free. Men can burn up to 588 calories during an hour of ice-skating, whilst women can burn 483 of those Christmas calories every hour
