The magic number is 10,000, huh? Maybe you have heard the recent guidelines about walking 10,000 steps per day and the importance of being active. How far is 10,000 steps anyway? The average person’s stride length is approximately 2.5 feet long. That means it takes just over 2,000 steps to walk one mile, and 10,000 steps is close to 5 miles. Walking can be done almost anywhere, at any time, and in any weather (especially now summer’s on the way). It’s also a great way to get from A to B, which means you can fit walking into your daily routine http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/loseweight/Pages/10000stepschallenge.aspx
