Figuring out how many calories you burn when running is, on a simple level, a fairly straightforward calculation. Most experts (and lots of studies) suggest that a person of average weight burns about 100 calories in a mile of running.
If you can jog at a pace of about 12 minutes per mile, youâll burn about 300 calories in 30 minutes. A recent study published in the Journal of Applied Physiology even found that aerobic activity such as jogging, is an effective way to lose weight. Researchers followed a group of 234 overweight adults for eight months.
