How many calories do you burn in 10 km?

Answer 1

I'm no expert but I am a runner and a nutrition savvy person. I know that every person burns calories different depending on weight, height, % muscle, BMR, hormones, etc.

I found from an unreliable source this factor: 0.653 calories/mile/pound which is likely an average over a population.

multiply your weight (in pounds) by the distance (in miles) and this factor and you should get an idea.

e.g.: I am 122 pounds so if I run 10K (6.213 miles) i will have burned 495 calories. This sounds about right as I usually get a reading of 590 calories on a treadmill for a 10K (and treadmill calorie counters aren't reliable in my opinion.

Answer 2

Not easy to tell, depends on how hard you're running. Won't be much anyhow, as calorie burn is pretty much determined by time spent at an elevated pulse rate. Even if you're fairly unfit you'll be able to finish 1 kilometer within 10 minutes and that 's just too short to use up any serious number of calories.
Depends on how fast you run, you can buy sport equipment that can help you figure out how many calories exact.

i recommend the NikePlus Sportband!

i ran one kilometer and burned 125 calories, running 7km an hour.

Answer 3

The number of calories burned varies according to weight and pace. A 180 pound runner who runs 2 kilometers in 10 minutes would burn 169 calories.

Answer 4

You can burn anywhere from 100 to 300 calories by running 1 km. This number can be higher or lower depending on the terrain and intensity of your run.

How many calories you would burn running 10 k would depend upon your weight, age and the speed at which you are running. You could burn about 1,000 calories running that distance.
