Is there anyone out there who has Wii Fit who does the "Free Run?" Is there any way to steer my Mii around the island where I want it to go, or am I stuck running around the outer track? I have not been able to figure out how to go down the dirt pathways. This would make it so much more fun. Thanks so much for any assistance!

Yes, if you pass your mii guide when a dog comes up behind you it takes you on a different path, different color dogs take you diff places, one takes you through town and past fountains, one takes you up to the village and through windmills, another takes you over a rope bridge up in the mountain, and another winds up at the lighthouse. There does not seem to be anyway to do this on Free run since you have no guide.

I love the Wii Fit, expecially the running one. I honestly can't help you, because when I do the free run, I do what it suggested, and I change the channel while I run. So I wouldn't know there's too many scenic paths

i have bought a wii fit but not yet used it, for those of you that have used it, do you think it helps you with weight loss or just fitness levels

I love it. I use it maybe 4-5 times per week. It is very cold outside and also there is ice everywhere. I do yoga once in a while or the strength training. (I find just working out at the YMCA a few times a week with weights is better.) But I really have fun with the aerobic workouts! I am trying to get over 10,000 steps a day on my pedometer, so this really helps. I love the rhythm boxing and the running around Wii Fit Island. I really do work up a sweat with those. As far as losing weight, it is exercise and you are burning calories. I still go to the YMCA and do 35 min on the treadmill or elyptical machine 4-5 times per week and also work out on my Gazelle machine at home. But this is nice to supplement that. It also tracks your weight and BMI.

I love my wii fit but dont thikn you can steer on free jog, I've never managed to, it does say you can change chanel and it will keep talking to you if that's any help?
This has to be the best toy ever invented, I have sports and Samba too and can easily work out for hours - lets hope one day I can thin my mii off lol!
