When I run 10 miles I lose 8 pounds (weighed myself before and after). When I walk 10 miles I only lose 1 pound. So how is walking better than running when I lose way more pounds when I run?????

LOL.. you do NOT lose 8lbs from a single 10 mile run.. you may be 8lbs lighter, but it's because you're dehydrated and need to replenish after a long run.
