A step counter tells you how many steps you took, but not how far you actually walked, and that depends on your stride length. This calculator turns a step count into distance in kilometres and miles. If you do not know your stride, it estimates one from your height using the common factor of about 0.415 for walking, then multiplies by your steps. You can also enter a measured stride length directly for more accuracy. Enter your steps, choose to derive stride from height or type your own, and the distance updates instantly in both units. It is useful for turning daily step goals into real world distance. Everything is calculated locally in your browser with nothing sent to a server. Stride estimates are approximate, since terrain, pace, and running versus walking all change the true step length.
It multiplies your step count by your stride length, which it can estimate from your height or take from a custom value you enter.
Stride length is approximated as a fraction of your height, so taller people cover more ground per step in the estimate.
It shows the distance in both kilometres and miles.
