- Even as a long time runner, I have never been clear as to the difference
- between running and jogging.
-
- Referencing a book on Nutrition, (Food and Fitness by Jan Nix and Linda Carlsen)
- I came accross a chart adapted from information from the American Heart
- Association which outlined caloric expenditure as a function of activity. The
- chart listed:
-
- Running (5-1/2 mph) 600 calories
- Jogging (5-1/2 mph) 740 calories
-
- There was no explaination as to the distinctions made between running and
- jogging... Anyone have some?
