1 hour walk = 20 minute run. seems logical.

Well that's different than 1mi walk=1 mi run. I don't run 3x faster than I walk.

Good Lord, did you not take any algebra in school? There are multiple variables in the excercise equation, you can manipulate time or effort and keep calories burned equal. So you can work harder or longer to get the same caloric deficit.
And what does it matter to you if someone else burns more or less than you do? Chances are you could train for years and not be as fit as the 4th string kicker on a single A college team. Stop worrying about other people so much you'll be happier and you'll stop bugging me with your whinging.
