2000 for basal metabolism, plus ~100 more for every mile I ran that day. I'm not too conscientious of it, I'm not counting calories each day, but it averages out over the course of a week.

really anywhere between 2500-5000 but for the most part right around 3000.

3000+
some of you need to eat more. 2000 is NOT enough for anything over like 10 MPW, you would be so much better if you increased. trust me, i know.

Ditto, but I use between 2000 to 2500 + 100 per mile to guesstimate.
I don't count but I would estimate between 3000-3500/day. I'm 6'3", 172 lbs, male, 60 mpw and working on getting back into shape.

Anyone who counts calories is an idiot.
Or an obsessive? If I want to lose weight I use the JFEL diet. It works.
Probably don't eat enough. Ask me about how many calories per day I drink, though. Woof.
Calories, or more appropriately for humans kilocalories, are a measure of energy therefore you do not consume calories.

2800-3200/ day depending on training and who's cooking the food
Carb goal each day is around 450-500 g / day. Protein around 85-90 g/ day
Fat between 60-80 g/ day
White rice seems to replace and fuel the glycogen in my legs best. I never feel great when eating a ton of meat (although I do eat chicken, fish, turkey, and some red meat 5-6 times/ week. I control my portions) I also eat a decent amount of eggs, and use plant based protein powder in fruit smoothies for recovery.
