how many steps must one take to walk a mile?

Its just like how many licks does it take to get to center of a tootsie pop? It depends how big and long your licks are. So there really is no answer unless we know excatly your walking style.

The average walk is said to be about 3 miles per hour or in other words about 20 minutes per mile.

depends on family and location but the best is a nature hike.  if you research some you will find that there are hiking trails everywhere.  anywhere from 1 mile to 50 miles long.  many of them have hard trails so you could even take a stroller if you had a baby, tho i would recommend a backpack type carrier.  take a small pack with snacks, clean finger food type and water/juice but water is best.  dress appropriate for weather, comfortable walking shoes and have fun.

Depends on how you walk. We are actually supposedly supposed to walk heel to toe instead of toe to heel, but basically the body weight being distributed on the feet depends on how you walk and stand.

You really need to work on your endurance.  Start with running 3 miles and work up to 8-10 miles.  By building your endurance it will make the mile a breeze to run.  You should also do some sprints like 400 meter sprints to help with the last stretch of your mile.

Many experts say that if you walk 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace you can remain fit.  Some walk 60 minutes every other day.  Walking more may help burn off excess calories to get fit while it takes less walking to remain well toned.

For one mile walking will burn about double the calories at approximately the same effort level (17-mph on the bike and 4-mph walking).  A 150-pound person will burn 35 cal. riding and 80-cal. walking.\nOf course on a bike in the 15-minutes it takes to walk that mile you will cover 4.25 miles and burn 135-calories.\nWhen comparing different types of work it is important to compare time not distance.

The mileage between Boston and NYC is 190 miles "as the crow flies" (in other words, a straight line.) Road mileage would be somewhat higher. Most people can walk at a pace of about 3 mph--a mile in about 20 minutes, 3 miles in an hour. Number of steps depends on the person's stride--if each step is about 2 1/2 ft. then you would be correct, about 2000 steps (a mile being 5,280 ft.)So, if you walked 7 to 8 hours a day, it would take about 10 days.\n\nYou'd want to stick to the back roads, so you'd need local maps. Maps are available at most any convenience store. You could also inquire about bike/hiking paths along the way. There are hiking clubs that could help you in planning a route. And...wear comfortable shoes! :)

The most I ever walked in one 24 hour period was 66 miles.\n\nSafe, is completely different.  Although you say you walk 5 miles, how long have you been doing it?  how often do you walk 5 miles? Is it flat or heavy terrain?  do you wear gear, or light? etc.\n\nI would say if you do already at least 5 miles a day and it is already comfortable (i.e. you don't stop, constant pace, and your heart rate does not increase much by the end), you can pop it up 100%  to 200% for a day within a week.  So, 15  miles should be tolerable.\n\nI would monitor your heart rate.  watch your baseline,and as you see it increase try to keep it at 50 - 70% above it... See how far you get within the same time as it takes you to do the 5 miles walk currently.  This should give you some guideline how much you could handle...\n\nYou should be able to keep a 3 to 3.2 mph speed.

400 meters is a 1/4 mile or 5280feet divided by 1/4 which is 1320 feet. At a fast pace that should take about 2.5 to 3 minutes to walk. Fast runners run it in under a minute

In the near-twenty years that I did with the Royal Mail the average figure was between 12-15 miles each day. This figure was taken from a fellow colleague who wanted to know the very same thing !!! How he found out was to attach a pedometer to himself and wear it on delivery during the course of an average week. That figure refers to those on foot - of course !!

going at a steady fast but not 'speedwalking pace' i do a mile in 15-20 minutes...up and down hill. i am short (5'5). if you have longer legs you may get there faster, haha, but 30 minutes should be about right...if you have never walked before, you may want and need to build up...everyone has different needs and abilities or limitations. best to try walking and slow down or stop if it seems to be to difficult...a little out of breath is good, a faster heartbeat is good, a little sweat is good...chest pains, gasping for breath, bad.

First off, do you have a workout plan? The biggest misconception is that it has to be a strenuous workout.... If you're not doing anything now, then something as simple as walking will do the trick. I walk three to four times a week. I started off walking just two miles. Now I am up to five miles. You should also try to limit your caloric intake. Try to do something simple such as cutting out snacks. You wouldn't believe how many calories you can save by cutting out something that simple. Don't feel like you have to deprive yourself of everything. Remember.... you're working hard at losing this weight. You deserve a treat every now and then. Moderation is key! Good luck!
