How the conversion works

miles = 2,000 × stride (inches) ÷ 63,360  ·  km = miles × 1.60934

One mile is 63,360 inches, so the only variable is your stride. The 26.4-inch row is the reference used for the FAQ and walking-time estimate; a longer stride covers more ground per step. At a 3 mph pace, 2,000 steps ≈ 17 minutes of walking.
