The MET value of running is around 8.
To calculate the metabolic equivalent (MET) for a specific physical activity, you divide the rate of energy expenditure during the activity by the rate of energy expenditure at rest. This gives you a numerical value that represents the intensity of the activity in relation to resting metabolism.
Running is a physical activity.

It might be best to answer this question in terms of METS (metabolic equivalents). To convert METS to V02 multiply by 3.5. Watching TV - 1 MET walking <2mph - 2 MET Housework - 2-4 MET (depending on activity) Jogging - 7 MET Running - 8+ MET Note: 'It must be noted that published MET values (or exercise calorie calculators on web sites, which are based on such values) for specific activities are experimentally and statistically derived from a sample of persons and are in fact indicative averages. Obviously the level of intensity at which a specific person performs a specific physical activity (e.g., the pace of walking, the speed of running, etc.) will deviate from the representative experimental conditions used for the calculation of the standard MET values, but moreover, as is explained in the following, the actual energy expenditure and the RMR will differ according to the person's overall fitness level and other factors.'

Yes, they are.
i value it as my everyday activity
