    I generally spend 5 minutes warming up, 5 minutes cooling doing at a speed of 5. And 30 minutes of running at an average speed of 8.5.

    Depending on how fast I go I usually burn 350 to 400 calories a session.

    Is this enough or to little

    I guess it depends on what you are trying to achieve and how your body feels.
    I adjust the speed based on my heart rate. Once it is averaging about 140 or below I raise the speed.

    You'd barely be jogging at 8.5, its almost 8 minutes a km on most treadmills.

    What are you trying to achieve OP?
