How to Calculate Calories Per Mile?
The calories burned is dependent on the activity, speed, duration, weight, metabolism, health condition and will vary for each individual.
The formula given below is an approximation and to be used as a thumb rule.
How many Calories Burned Walking a Mile?
Calories Burned = Weight in Lbs * Distance in Mile * 0.53
Depending on the speed of walking, the factor 0.53 can vary from 0.51 to 0.57 (Slow to Fast walk)
For example, consider a person weighing 160 lbs walking at a brisk pace for 2 miles:
Calories Burned = 160 * 2 * 0.57 = 182 kcal
A person weighing 150 lbs walking for 1 mile at normal pace will burn:
Calories Burned = 150 * 1 * 0.53 = 79.5 Kcal
How many Calories Burned Running a Mile?
Calories Burned = Weight in Lbs * Distance in Mile * 0.71 (ranging from 0.64 to 0.75)
For example, consider a person weighing 175 lbs running at a slow pace for 3 miles:
Calories Burned = 175 * 3 * 0.71 = 336 kcal
How many Calories Burned Cycling a Mile?
Calories Burned = Weight in Lbs * Distance in Mile * 0.68 (Ranging from 0.63 to 0.73)
For example, consider a person weighing 130 lbs cycling for 1.5 miles at slow pace:
Calories Burned = 130 * 1.5 * 0.63 = 123 kcal
