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.
What is a good average walking speed for fitness walking? The answer depends on a few factors, such as your age, fitness level, leg length, terrain (flat or hilly) and gender (research has shown that men move faster than women). In general, it is between 3.0 â 3.5 miles per hour which means you can walk one mile in 17 to 20 minutes. At this brisk pace, many people will enjoy the aerobic benefits, such as strengthened cardiovascular system, lower blood pressure, less anxiety and improved overall physical fitness.
