Calories burned during a 40 yard dash?

WombatHat42

Out of curiosity, I've been trying to find how many calories are burned when someone does a 40 yard dash. In high school, we would do 10-15 40-50 yard sprints for conditioning. For me, being a lineman, I ran a 40 in about 6 seconds(average) and was 290, 6'1. I would test this out by just jumping on a treadmill or using a fitbit, but I have a broken foot and am not allowed to do anything but walk in my boot.

So if I, still at 6'1 (185cm) 290(131kg) ran a 40 yard dash(~37m) in 6.0 seconds, how many calories would I burn?
