Can we at least note that more the speed of running or walking the more calories burned?

Running Versus Walking: Which Burns More Calories? | ACTIVE

Question: I’m confused about which exercise burns more calories, walking or running?
Answer: I am asked this question frequently, simply because more people exercise to lose weight rather than for its health benefits.

The idea of doing a minimal amount of work–while reaping the same rewards as you might from hard work–is appealing. Unfortunately that’s not the way it works.

So does running burn more calories than walking? Well, yes and no.

High intensity = calorie burn

If you run for 20 minutes or walk for 50 minutes, you end up burning about the same amount of calories. But if you walk for 20 minutes or run for 20 minutes, running will create the biggest calorie deficit.

Brother, if you run a mile or walk a mile you burn same no of calories, of course, you can run the mile quicker. Running can be very hard on joints.
