The Speed You Walk. Intensity is also a big factor in determining how many calories you'll burn during any given activity. According to that same Harvard Medical School calorie chart, the 155-pound person will burn 149 calories per 30 minutes walking at a 3.5-mph pace -- or roughly a 17-minute mile. If she speeds up, she'll burn more calories. Walking 1 mile at 4 mph -- which should take her 15 minutes -- she will burn 83.5 calories.
2. If you can walk at a pace of about 4.7 mph, you'll burn as many calories per mile as you do when running. Do intervals (go as fast as you can for 30 to 60 seconds, then move at a more moderate speed for five minutes) to prevent fatigue and keep your metabolism revved long after your walk.
