We are planning to get a dog, so we want to be sure on how much exercise they require.

JRTs were developed to keep up with fox hunters on horseback all day while intermittently digging into burrows to fight wild animals their own size (either to the death or until the fox "bolted" so the chase could continue).If the dog is correct for the breed and healthy, you will hardly be able to OVER exercise the dog. Think miles and hours, not blocks and minutes, and make sure that they have brain exercise (i.e. training or puzzle games) to do every day as well.

Hah! JRTs can run and run and run from sunup to sundown. For a JRT, I'd be thinking two or three 45 minute JOGS or BIKE RIDES daily, plus 30 minutes to an hour to work on agility, flyball, obedience, nose work or fetch.

Lots. My Jacks have the run of five acres, from sunrise to sunset, their own swimming pool, play fetch twice daily, 20-30 minutes each time, run 1-1/2 mile twice daily, swim three times a week in the river for an hour or more, and the champ does treadmill twice daily on max incline 20 minutes aerobics, 30 minutes fat burn. Don't know what that comes out to distance wise.

You choose a dog based upon how active (or not) that you are before you get the dog. There are dogs for less active people even though most breeds have higher activity levels and all puppies are quite active. This is because good intentions often fall apart in a few months and then the owner and dog are stuck in a bad match. I suggest that you try YourPurebredPuppy.com. It is a free website which tells the good and bad about every breed listed there.

Just to reword what 4Her4Life and Kaitlyn said: don't even dream about tiring out a JRT solely by running. Sure, they need it to keep their energy levels at bay, but mental exercises are what make them totally pooped for hours. Add trick training, ability, obedience, nosework, discdog, barnwork or smething similar to your daily schedule.
Also be aware that puppies shouldn't do strenuous exercises (e.g. running with humans), it's not good for their health and physical development.
This should give you an idea about the energy levels of the breed:

As a small dog,he doesnt require much but jack russells are hyper so just run until you think its enough.

Most people judge it by time, not distance, because throwing a ball for the dog to retrieve, or swimming if the dog likes to swim, is just as good as you running or walking with the dog. Figure on at least an hour a day of fairly vigorous exercise.
