How many calories you burn is really dependent on your heartrate as well. Someone in great shape will see less burn variance running because they typically have less HRV.
When you're less in-shape (or more strength focused rather than cardio), running spikes your heart rate very quickly, and if you manage to eke out 5-10m of it it will burn a ton of calories.
My daily warmup includes 5m at 7 KPH at a 10 degree incline on a treadmill before stretching, and it burns no less than 75-80 calories in that short interval.
