Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about the free online steps to distance calculator.
Distance is the step count multiplied by your stride length, converted from centimetres into
metres and then kilometres.
Height is multiplied by about 0.415 for men and 0.413 for women, an average walking ratio
used for step estimates.
Yes. Type a stride length in centimetres and the tool uses it instead of the height based
estimate.
Calories use roughly 0.5 kilocalories per kilogram of body weight per kilometre, multiplied
by the distance walked.
Trackers use their own stride and calorie models, so device totals differ. Any figure here is
an estimate for general information.
Cadence, your steps per minute, converts the step count into walking time in the milestone
table.
At a typical stride of about 70 centimetres, roughly 1400 to 1500 steps make a kilometre, or
about 2200 steps per mile.
No. It is an estimate for general information and not medical advice. Speak to a clinician
about exercise targets.
