The number of miles in 20,000 steps depends on the length of your stride. On average:
- Average step length for adults: about 2.5 feet per step
- Steps per mile: approximately 2,000 steps
Calculation:
1 mile = 5,280 feet
Average step length = 2.5 feet
Steps per mile = 5,280 / 2.5 ≈ 2,112 steps So, 20,000 steps ÷ 2,112 steps per
mile ≈ 9.46 miles
Summary:
- 20,000 steps ≈ 9.5 miles (average stride length)
If your stride is shorter or longer, this number will vary slightly. For example, if your step length is 2.2 feet, 20,000 steps would be closer to 8.3 miles; if 2.7 feet, then about 10.2 miles. Would you like help calculating based on your specific step length?
