TANGERANG - Sports activities are currently a lifestyle among urban communities. One of them is running, which is one of the most popular activities because it inspires people to live healthily and strengthens the values of togetherness.
GRID Hub Public Relations, Suci Sugiyono said that the event held at his place was a little different from other running events. The reason is that this activity carries a mission of goodness. This event targets the participation of 1,500 runners in two categories, namely 5K and 10K.
"GRID Cardio Rush 2025 is not only a sports event, but also a social movement that invites people to run while carrying a mission of goodness," said Suci Sugiyono in his statement, Monday, May 26.
He said that this year's event is also a JHL Collection Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) program by distributing 1,000 pairs of new shoes to children in need in various regions in Indonesia.

The public can contribute to helping children in need through this social program while exercising. "(So), every ticket purchase is equivalent to one pair of shoes that will be donated to children in need," said Suci
As a form of additional support, said Suci, there is a drop box for donations of used shoes that is open to the general public who want to contribute. This drop box will be available and can be accessed before, during, or after the day of the event.
"This collaboration is expected to inspire the public to share in the spirit of a healthy life, as well as strengthen the values of togetherness and empathy," said Suci.
For those of you who regularly do running, you may have wondered, how many calories are burned after completing a 5K or 10K run? Here is a simple explanation that can provide an overview.
In general, the number of calories burned while running depends on your weight and the distance traveled. The heavier you are, the more calories you burn. Here are the estimates:
🔸 5K Run
For recreational (non-professional) runners, running 5 kilometers can burn calories as follows:
- Around 250–300 calories for a body weight of ±50 kg
- Around 300–350 calories for a body weight of ±60 kg
- Around 350–400 calories for a body weight of ±70 kg
- Around 400–450 calories for a body weight of ±80 kg
🔸 10K Run
If you cover twice the distance, which is 10 kilometers, then the estimated calories burned also increase:
- Around 500–600 calories for a body weight of ±50 kg
- Around 600–700 calories for a body weight of ±60 kg
- Around 700–800 calories for a body weight of ±70 kg
- Around 800–900 calories for a body weight of ±80 kg
On average, a person will burn around 60–70 calories per kilometer when running. This means that the further the distance traveled, the more calories are burned. But most importantly, running is not only beneficial for burning calories, but is also very good for heart health, physical fitness, and overall mental health.
