The Earth's orbit around the sun is a parabola, so the distance between us and the sun varies quite a bit at different points of the year. The average distance between us and the sun is defined as an AU, an astronomical unit. it's just a bit short of 150 billion meters, 149 598 000 000m is the formal definition.
