Some facts...
How many kilometers are there in 10,000 steps?
This depends on your stride length, the length of each step. Formula: number of kilometers in 10,000 steps = 10,000 steps * stride length in kilometers. Stride length can be measured or calculated:
- Women .413 * height
- Men .415 * height
Example:
A women, lets call her Polly, who is a shorty of height 160cm (5'3") would have a stride length of 160 * .413 = 66.08cm. Let's convert this to kilometers 66.08cm / 100,000 = 0.0006608 km. Now plug it into the formula: 10,000 steps * 0.0006608 km stride length = 6.608 km. So if Polly goes for a walk each 10,000 steps she covers 6.608 kilometers.
So if Polly walked from Montreal to Vancouver it would take her 7,531,780 steps!
