    2.82 km (1.75 mi); step length 0.74 m (2.43 ft); moderate 5 km/h (3.1 mph), total MET 3.8. Brisk retains the separate legacy 5.0 MET assumption at 6.5 km/h (4.0 mph). Active energy subtracts 1 resting MET from the moderate walk. Total and active are two views of the same walk, never added.

    How step length changes the distance

    At 0.62–0.84 m (2.03–2.76 ft) per step, 3,806 steps spans 2.36–3.20 km (1.47–1.99 mi). For a known route, a longer step means fewer steps, not a longer route.

    Using this conversion

    Use the conversion for a tracked walk or a known route. Time assumes continuous walking at 5 km/h (3.1 mph); traffic lights, breaks and slower sections increase elapsed time.

    How 1.75 Miles Becomes 3,806 Steps

    Steps = distance in meters ÷ step length. Here: 2.816 km × 1,000 ÷ 0.74 m ≈ 3,806 steps.

    At 5 km/h (3.1 mph), this distance takes about 34 minutes. The 70 kg (154 lb) reference walk expends 157 total kcal (116 active kcal above rest), using total MET 3.8. Calories = MET × 3.5 × kg ÷ 200 × minutes. These are estimates, not a weight-loss forecast.

    Step length is one footfall; a full stride spans two steps. Height is only an estimate: use a measured step length for a more personal conversion. Changing pace also changes step length, so time and energy estimates are not measurements.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How long does this walk take?

    About 34 minutes at 5 km/h (3.1 mph), excluding stops.

    Does body weight change the step-to-distance conversion?

    No. Distance depends on step count and step length; body weight is used for the energy estimate only.

    How do I improve the estimate?

    Measure a known distance and divide it by your counted steps. Enter that one-step length in the calculator; height is an alternative estimate.
