I found the stride chart....
for a 2 ft stride length.. it takes about 2750 steps for a mile

for 2 1/4 ft stride is about 2500 steps

for 2 1/2 ft stride is about 2250 steps!

I can check the chart for different stride lengths. I just posted these because they are more our average on here.
Taller people take fewer steps because they have a longer stride. I'm not one of them, lol!

PS: My running stride is only slightly longer than my walking stride.

So if my stride is 19 feet in 10 steps.... I forget how to figure that out! See, it's not that I'm "bad" at math; I'm *forgetful* at math! ;-)

I don't know, sis.. I used a yard stick and just walked normally and had ds measure from heel to heel.. then I did it at a pretend jog and measured that as my running stride.

Anna,, I forget that I can google everything!!! LOL! It's not yet programmed into my brain.

Those are some cool tools!!
Theirs is slightly less steps than the chart I have shows, but they are close enough that I don't think it matters too much.

My Mom sold World Book Encyclopedias for much of my childhood to help with our income. EVERY question I EVER asked was greeted with "Let's look it up!" :roll:

You never forget that kind of lesson. Serves me well. :D

Well, you know, once I got over the annoyance, anyway ;)

OH - I'm WAY too lazy to use a book when I can google. You just need to work on getting lazier! (SP - that doesn't look right?!)
