No, not at all. There are several differences:

-- one uses mostly the arms; the other uses mostly the legs

-- the swim is shorter than 3 miles; the run takes longer than 3 minutes

-- one requires shoes; the other doesn't

-- one is in water; the other isn't

How many laps in a 25 meter pool would equal the same effort not distance in running a mile which is much easier than swimming a mile what would your estimate be for a mile swim to equal a mile run?

It so much depends on how fast you run and how fast you swim and what type of stroke, and your weight. But roughly, say you run a 10 minute mile you burn 100 calories; say you swim 12 laps (300 meters) in 10 minutes you burn about the same 100 calories. A mile is 1600 meters, so a mile swim is a about a 5 mile run. Or 12 laps is about a mile run
