In the Forum - Walking/Jogging for Weight Loss
Friday January 9, 2004
One forum member wants to know: "Does anyone know what the target time or mileage should be for weight loss - i.e. how many miles one should aim for per week (or day)?" Have an answer? Join the discussion!

I have read 25-30 miles a week should be a goal for weight loss. On another site I read that at 40 minutes into a run (at a comfortable pace) your body starts using fat as its main source for energy. I do not recall the sites I found this information on though, so sorry that I can’t really back it up. Good luck!
