Formula
Distance (m) = steps × stride (cm) ÷ 100
Miles = metres ÷ 1609.344, km = metres ÷ 1000.
Worked example
10,000 steps at 76 cm: 7,600 m = 7.6 km = 7600 ÷ 1609.344 = 4.72 miles.
Frequently asked questions
How many steps are in a mile?
It depends on stride length. At 76 cm per step, 1609.344 m ÷ 0.76 m is about 2118 steps per mile.
How far is 10,000 steps?
With a 76 cm stride, 10,000 steps cover 7.6 km, which is 4.72 miles.
How do I measure my stride length?
Walk a known distance, such as 20 m, count your steps, and divide the distance by the count. 20 m in 26 steps is a stride of about 77 cm.
Is stride length the same when running?
No. Strides are longer when you run, so use a larger stride length for running than for walking.
