Swimming burns more calories than track. In swimming you are using all of your muscles and putting pressure against all of them. In addition, you are cooling your entire body with water at the same time.

When talking about calorie usage, what's important isn't what you do, but how hard and how long you keep at it.

If you get equally sweaty and winded, expect to burn about the same amount of calories for the same length of exercise.
