Steps to Miles Calculator

How steps convert to distance

Stride length varies by height and by whether you're walking or running, so this calculator estimates your stride from your height and multiplies it out by your step count.

For the reverse conversion — figuring out how many steps a target mileage will take — see the miles to steps calculator. If you'd rather see an estimated calorie burn than a distance, the steps to calories calculator uses the same stride math plus your weight and pace.

Where these numbers come from

The formulas and default values in this calculator are based on:

• Common stride-length estimation formulas (walking stride &asymp
• height x 0.413
• running stride longer due to increased leg extension and airtime)

These are planning estimates for training purposes. Check with a coach, trainer, or physician before starting a new program or maxing out.
