What would burn more calories? Running in general or this elliptical machine?

It's a loaded question ... it's like saying, "What can I travel farthest with ... a car or a pickukp?" Both can get you to where you're going.

Running hard burns a lot of calories. Jogging will burn fewer calories in the same amount of time. The elliptical will burn calories and it's just a question of staying on longer or training harder if you want to burn more.

Depends on too many factors. Running at different speeds will burn different amount of calories. Elliptical machine on different speeds, levels, etc., will burn different amount of calories. Just stick with what you enjoy and can afford (if you are thinking of the elliptical).
