Ancient Nubia occupied the territory beyond, or upriver, the first cataract while Ancient Egypt occupied the lands below, or downriver, of the first cataract. Historians have come to divide Nubia itself into sub regions with Lower Nubia comprising the lands between the first and second cataract and Upper Nubia being the regions beyond the second cataract.
How You Burn Calories. Your weight x distance = energy used walking. Time does not matter as much as distance. If you speed up to walking a mile in 13 minutes or less, you will be burning more calories per mile. But for most beginning walkers, it is best to increase the distance before working on speed. A simple rule of thumb is 100 calories per mile for a 180 pound person.
Use these charts to learn how many calories you are burning on your walk, depending on your weight and pace for various distances from one mile to the marathon distance of 26.2 miles. First, take a look at the calories you would burn per mile at a typical walking pace you'd enjoy while taking a healthy walk or walking your dog. This pace is the natural one you'd assume when just going for a walk without attempting to walk fast.
