Abstract


A vital part of modelling is taking part in runway shows. In this paper, the kilometres covered on the runway by three young models (Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid, and Kaia Gerber) was determined, and subsequently the calories burned over the course of their careers. It was found that they have walked 1.66, 1.74, and 0.72 km respectively. These three models have also burned 78.98, 83.63, and 31.89 calories on the runway respectively.
