Best Answer
Calories burned running
  • This will vary based on a wide variety of factors such as your weight, your current physical condition, the intensity of the run in relation to energy expenditure, how far you run as well as how fast you run. Where you are running also makes a difference.
  • The most generally used base line seems to be about 100 calories per mile. As with all cardio or aerobic exercise, running can also increase your base metabolic rate (the rate at which you burn calories even when not exercising).
  • The average person can probably count on approximately 100 calories per mile. Using a treadmill that measures heart rate/weight or a similar training device will be more accurate for your individual burn rate.
  • For more information about how to do cardio running (or cardio walking) correctly for maximum calorie burning, see the page links, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.

about 100 calories per mile if you are running at a moderate rate around a 10 minute or so mile. it also varies, as larger body masses use more calories when running and smaller body masses use less, but 100 is a pretty average place to start from.

100 Calories is a pretty good average, but if you would like a very specific answer for your weight and % grade then you can calculate it using the calculator provided in the related links. It offers a few different ways to enter your running information (i.e. minutes per mile)

The average 6 to 7 minute mile burns just under 100 calories. So a marathon at that pace (marathon = 26.2 miles) would burn about 2,600 calories. Running faster mile times would burn more calories. Running slower mile times or walking at least part of the marathon would burn less (walking at a decent pace burns 80 calories per mile).
