How to use this calculator

  1. Enter the quantities in the units printed on each field.
  2. Use your own measured step length whenever a step length is requested.
  3. Read the calculated result, then change an input to compare a different scenario.

Formula and calculation method

Full cycles = floor(session ÷ (run + walk)); the remainder starts with running.

1 mile = 1,609.344 m; 1 foot = 0.3048 m; 1 inch = 2.54 cm. Steps are rounded to whole counts; other displayed values normally use two decimal places.

Worked example

A 30-minute session with 3-minute runs and 1-minute walks gives 7 full cycles plus 2 running minutes: 23 running and 7 walking.

Accuracy and limitations

Warm-up and cool-down are additional unless you include them in the chosen session time.
