Q: I am 24 years old and jog 5 kms everyday, which takes about 30 minutes. Can you please enlighten me on how many calories I may be burning by jogging for this time period?

A:Although one cannot put an exact figure to this, as conditions may change each time you jog, an estimate of about 500-650 calories can burn when you jog for half an hour at a speed of 5 kms.
