10. MEASURING STRIDE LENGTH
HOW TO MEASURE YOUR STRIDE LENGTH
1
To find out what your stride is, walk or run 10 steps and then measure
the distance with a tape measure from the first step’s toe to the 10th
step’s toe.
2
Divide your total distance by 10 to get your average stride length.
3
For a quick estimate, walk 3 steps, measure the distance, and divide by
3. The more steps you take, the more accurate and realistic your stride
will be. An average walking stride for a female is 2 feet (24 in.), a male
is 2.5 feet (30 in.).
