👟 Running Calorie Calculator
Calculate calories burned running based on weight, distance, pace, and terrain.
👟 Formula
MET method
MET × weight(kg) × hours
MET varies by speed
Rule of thumb
~1 kcal/kg/km
Quick estimate
Running calorie burn depends mostly on body weight and distance. Pace matters, but often less than people assume over the same total distance.
🔥 Calories/km by Weight
60 kg~60 kcal/km
70 kg~70 kcal/km
80 kg~80 kcal/km
90 kg~90 kcal/km
💡 Efficiency
- ✓Distance > speed for calories
- ✓Hills can add a meaningful calorie cost
- ✓Treadmill and outdoor running can differ
- ✓EPOC may add some post-exercise burn
- ✓Fuel longer runs appropriately

Running vs Walking
Running generally burns more calories per minute, while total calorie burn over distance is often closer than many people expect. For weight loss, consistency and total weekly volume matter a lot.
