Its estimated that in 20 mins of cardio you switch from using glycogen to fat as an energy source hence the "oh fuck i feel tired" syndrome around that point since its a less effective source of fuel. Running will help you lose fat, as will other cardio exercises. If you go into a diet thinking "hmm, i'll just switch what i eat and sit on my ass all day", you will spend double the time, or even longer trying to lose the same amount of weight as you would if you had bothered to exercise.
Having said that, i do HIIT now and been getting great results, so the above is irrelevant if you are doing HIIT rather than long, low impact cardio sessions.
