Question: If you average 5min 30sec per KM on a 5K or 10K run how many calories do you burn?
Answer: Although faster speed do rev up the calorie burner somewhat, it's actually the distance you cover that determines how many calories you burn. And the formula is roughly 100 calories per mile. So you burned about 310 calories in the 5K, and about 620 calories in the 10K. |
