Running. I want to know how many miles do you need to run to loose a POUND?

Question

What's the most pounds you have lost by running? Weekly? Day?

Thanks

Answer 1

It varies on how you eat and how fast your metabolism is. Sorry I'm not much help, but there's too many factors when losing weight. It may be 5 miles, it may be 10.

Answer 2

THIS IS WHAT YOU WANTED TO KNOW. IF YOU EAT AND THEN WEIGH YOURSELF AND YOU WEIGH 125. IF YOU GO RUN 5 MILES YOU WILL PROBABLY WEIGH 124. I KNOW THAT FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE. IVE RAN 10 MILES AND LOST 3 LBS THOUGH. IT COMES BACK WHEN YOU EAT THOUGh.

Answer 3

welll my friend figured that 4 M&Ms is like a mile so it depends on how many M&Ms you eat lol

Answer 4

Different for anyone. Depends on:

-how much you eat

-how many calories you eat on an average meal

-how many meals a day

-what you eat

-how fast you're running

-how you're running in general (fast movement of legs, far large steps, short steps in quantity)

too many factors to give an answer

Answer 5

depends on how fast your running, what type of workout your getting...

Answer 6

I'm sorry friend but that question was a silly one.. Its not a measurement that this much of running will reduce this much of fat. It depends on the person. It a 500 pound man stop a mile daily (impossible) he will lord more than a hundred but if a normal man does so he might not able to lose a total of ten.. And don't worry about fat.. Just join a gym.. Best of luck.

Answer 7

if you lose a pound running in one day its cuz youre dehydrated!!!!! running burns about 400cals an hour so youd need to run for 8.75 hours  to burn off 1lb which i really doubt youre guna do

Answer 8

if you want to burn a pound you have to lose 3500 calories

Answer 9

it depends on your personal metabolism and how much you eat each day and what exactly you eat.

however, you can generally diet and run around 30 minutes a day and lose around 2 pounds in a week.

Answer 10

also depends how fast and if u are running up a hill like road on sand or on grass usually burns more

Answer 11

all the info i can give u is 3500cal.=1lb

Answer 12

What a stupid question..........If you run 2000000000 miles and then eat 45,000,000 pounds of cheese you will gain a pound.

Answer 13

I think a pound of fat is roughly 3500 calories, so you'd have to burn your intake of calories PLUS 3500 to lose a pound.  the rate at which you burn calories depends on your current fitness level, activity level, etc.

Answer 14

8 miles=100 calories..

I'm not sure about how many pound you can lose though..

Answer 15

Depends on how fast you run and what incline is. You need to burn 3500 more calories than you consume in order to lose a pound.

Answer 16

Depends on how much calories you eat

Answer 17

You need to burn 3500 calories to lose a pound. So calculate how much a person of your weight and height burns by running and figure it out from there.
