How Many Calories do you burn??

This. My easy pace HR is 135-145. That's what makes it an easy pace to me. Even at an 8:30 I'm still under 150. When I did my 5k my average HR was 175. This is all so interesting.I use my Garmin 210 HRM.
So is this a good excuse to buy that new 620 i've been eyeing ?!? (Please say yes!)
I'm also eating way over my calories (you should see the things I don't always log... LOL) and not gaining.
But like Victoria, my HR is always in the 150-160 even at my easy pace. Maybe this is it. Or maybe it's the Canada thing. haha
Y'all's easy pace heartrates seem high. Mine is around 138-145, but maybe I go slower than you ladies.
Yah, I go by the Daniels' Training Tables http://www.electricblues.com/html/runpro.html
My "easy aerobic" HR is 133-143, or 70-75% of my 190 max. Everything pretty much lines up except for the pesky marathon.0 -

8.06 miles and 3 calories burned according to the treadmill.
I waited until the cool down to enter my weight in pounds, you think that may have something to do with the error in measurement?0 -

Hmm... I'm pretty sure even a midget would burn more than that0 -
Have fun eating back those exercise calories today.<

Jeez, some of y'all HRs are like hummingbirds. My max is right around 178. Most of my easy runs don't even get out of the 130s.0 -
I haven't been wearing my HRM lately, but back when I was wearing it, I know I didn't burn nearly as many calories as I always thought I did! One of the last runs I did while wearing it (which was last fall), was a 14 miler, and I only burned 816 calories! Over 14 miles?!
So yeah, I don't get it either. Obviously, I understand why people who weigh more and/or less fit people would burn more, but other than that I don't get it.
Oh and I'm 5'-7", 135 lbs.0 -
I don't know. I don't use an HRM. I know that whatever MFP estimates for me based on minutes of running is way high. I cut that down by about a third as a guesstimate -- seems to work out okay. As it turns out it takes 81 minutes for my guesstimate to work out to 1,000 calories, which is about 10 miles for me, at 6'2" and 185 pounds.0

I run pretty cords free so I have NO idea. And I do mean, completely cords free.
Anyways, my Momma runs with a HR ( chest strap, until it annoyed her and she stopped) It's rate was just about exactly as that Runner's World running calorie tracker. It was eerier how close they were.0 -
I am totally missing something on this unicorn track thing. >.> <.<
http://www.myfitnesspal.com/topics/show/581826-people-who-are-burning-1000-calories-a-day?page=10I wear a heart rate monitor, it includes a wrist watch and a chest strap. I walk laps on the track behind my house. Each lap burns 200 calories...I also use 2lb dumbells also while listening to the workout radio on pandora. 8 laps are 1000 calories. remember your heartrate is what tells how many calories your burning. MFP is not accurate at all.
also, ive used various brands of hrm and they've all calculated similar calculations. each person is different.
One lap is 200 calories, but 8 is only 1000... and then she later replies saying that the track isn't really a track but a lap around her neighborhood, at an undetermined time/distance
This was pretty much my reaction to that woman:

I, like many here, do not measure precisely. But, according to MFP:
Male, 5'8', 176 lb.s
Eight miles = ~1,000 calories exactly0 -
For me, male, 50, 6'1" and approx 175lbs ....
I reckon running 7.5 miles (which takes me about 70 mins) burns 1,000 cals. My Heart rate on a run of this sort is typically 153-158 for most of the time.0 -
I'm 5'5 and about a buck 20 in weight. It takes 11 miles at a 7:30 avg pace to burn about 1000 cals. Do it daily actually and it sucks.0

I am 66, female, 5'4", 158 pounds and still have some to lose. Just began running last December and finished my first half marathon last Sunday. I burned 1538 calories doing the half marathon but then I am still pretty heavy in comparison to most women runners. I am also a slow runner so that contributes to the number of calories I burn. I have noticed a decrease in the calories burned as my weight decreases.0

I'm 36, 5'2, 125 lbs. Takes me two hours to burn 1000, 12 miles. I run on either side of the 10 min pace a good deal of the time.0
-
I'm 44 y/o, 5'4, 49 kg (108lbs)
Around 2 hrs to burn 1000 cals, around 6 min/km; around 20km (12.5 km).0 -
Over the last 14 months since I started running I can see a distinct reduction in the calorie expenditure. It now takes me around 9 miles, so about 90 minutes on the flat, expenditure is a good bit higher when I'm on the trails, presumably down to elevation as well as distance.
I'm 44, 6'1", 170lbs.
Extrapolating from my earlier records it looks as if it would have taken me just over an hour when I started running, although clearly in those sessions I wasn't running for that length of time.
Given the discussion of HR upthread, my easy pace runs I'm around 145-150bpm, tempo sessions I'm around 170-180.0 -
Ms. Victoria, It is because you are a beast of a runner. You run high miles and you run fast.0
-
I'm 23, 5'3" and around 145 lbs. I burn 1000 calories on 9-10 mile runs (around 100-110 calories per mile). I usually pace right around 9:30 minute miles for long runs, throw in a few hills for good measure. When I was about 20 lbs lighter, I was burning 90-100 calories per mile, so it would have taken 10-11 miles to burn 1000.0
-
I'm 5'4" and 124 lbs, and it takes me about 1 hour 45 minutes of running at 10min/mile pace (about 10-11 miles) to burn 1000 calories. So a typical Saturday long run. Most days its closer to 400 calories, as I'm normally running more like 40-45 minutes per day during the week.0
