Running in the Heat (calories burned?)
Well it's getting damn hot out and I had this question. Say you run 2 miles in 70 weather, and then run those same 2 miles in 90 degree weather, would calorie expenditure be any different?
Obviously, the 90 degree run would be harder, you would be more tired, and continuing would be more difficult. Does this correspond with calories burned? Or is it he same amount of calories burned, just harder earned?

I think running in either extreme heat or cold means a few more calories burned; your body has to activate metabolic processes to keep you from overheating or freezing (Sweating and cell entropy respectively) but I wouldn't do it just because of that. The difference is questionable though.
The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

The difference in cals burned would probably be cancelled out by the fact that id give up earlier if it was really hot.

I'm no expert, but I say yes. It is harder for me to run in extreme heat or harsh cold. Feels like more work.

In any case, we're all chemical so its kind of logical to assume that yes, we burn more calories in the heat.6' 217lbs (10/18)
