Beginner, short distance (say 10-15 miles): average speed 12 mph. Most cyclists can achieve 10-12 mph average very quickly with limited training. More experienced, short-medium distance (say 20-30 miles): average 15-16 mph. Reasonable experience, medium (say 40 miles): average around 16-19 mph.
Stride length is measured from heel to heel and determines how far you walk with each step. On average, a man's walking stride length is 2.5 feet, or 30 inches, according to Arizona State University Extension. A woman's average stride length is 2.2 feet, or 26.4 inches, reports the school.
Multiply your height in inches by 0.413. This is a predetermined number that figures out average stride length. Then convert your stride length back to feet for the next step. (63 inches x 0.413 = 26.019 inches per stride. 26.019 inches/12 inches per foot = 2.16825 feet per stride.).3. Find How Many Steps You Walk In A Mile. Divide 5,280 by your average stride length in feet.(5,280/2.16825 feet = 2,435 steps per mile.). Remember, stride length changes based on speed, but both of these ways provide approximate calculations to help you figure out the number of steps you take in a mile.hen convert your stride length back to feet for the next step.
