How many miles is 10,000 steps?

At 75 cm per step, 10,000 steps is 7.5 km, or about 4.66 miles. If your steps are 60 cm, the same count is about 3.73 miles. Use your measured step length for a personal estimate.

Example distances at 75 cm per step
StepsKilometresMiles
1,0000.750.47
5,0003.752.33
7,5005.623.50
10,0007.504.66
15,00011.256.99

To convert the other way, divide distance by step length in the same units. A mile is 1,609.344 metres, so at 75 cm per step it takes about 2,146 steps.

How it works

Multiply the number of steps by the length of one step to get distance. A full stride is two steps. If your device reports stride length that way, halve it before entering it.

This tool uses numbers you enter. It does not read a pedometer or device sensors.
