The top point total for May is in excess of 66,000. Can anybody come up with an explanation of how anybody could genuinely earn that many points in 83.5 hours?

An hour of high-level bicycling gets you 812 calories, so 83.5 hours of high-level bicycling gets you 67,000+ points. A guy at work rides his bike easily that much in a month.
Probably there are a couple of other activities with that much reward but I don't have time to fake out the PC interface any more right now. I would think cross-country skiing and some heavy-duty swimming would do it.

Okay, but there had only been 83.5 hours total in the month when I posted the question. Methinks someone logged activity in May that happened before, or someone just made a bunch of stuff up.

Oh. I misunderstood.
They probably just had a lot of catching up to do.
I put down household chores for today, as I don't see a listing for pop-rivet gun. Dad and I patched the gutters are the Humane Society. He bought sheet metal, and measured the places to patch, and precut the pieces. I should have put down more hours today than we did, for his prep work.
