Running Kalorien Burn RechnerFormel

## How Running Calorie Burn Is Estimated

Calories burned depend on your weight, speed, and duration.

### Formula

**Calories = MET x Weight (kg) x Duration (hours)**

The MET (Metabolic Equivalent of Task) for running varies with pace. A rough linear model:

**MET = 15.5 - 0.65 x Pace (min/mile)**

Faster paces have higher MET values, meaning more calories per minute. However, slower runners burn more total calories per mile because they are moving for longer.

### Note

This is an estimate. Actual calorie burn varies with fitness level, terrain, temperature, and running efficiency.

Lösungsbeispiel

A 160 lb runner covers 3 miles at a 9:00/mile pace.

  1. Weight in kg = 160 * 0.4536 = 72.57 kg
  2. Duration = 3 * 9 / 60 = 0.45 hours
  3. MET = 15.5 - 0.65 * 9 = 9.65
  4. Calories = 9.65 * 72.57 * 0.45 = 315 kcal
  5. Calories per mile = 315 / 3 = 105 kcal/mile
