How many miles do you walk each day?

Would those apps work on my ancient Nokia............I still have the wind up handle for it

Absolutely, you would have to keep turning the handle constantly while walking and delivering letters though

My pedometer has recorded 28500 steps on my walk which iis about 14 km.

i dont know what pedometer you are using but usually 1000 steps equates to half a mile so 2000 would be a mile 28500 would therefore be 14 1/4 miles(not 14 k) this would be an incredible amount to walk slightly better if it was on the flat obviously and was it without a break and what time did you take to walk it our furthest rounds tend to be 11 miles on a bad day best 6 on a light day the longer walks take you into excess and you have to book o/t so the distance is over about 5 hours we still have to walk about 4 miles an hour betwwen doors and gates to keep up its very hard going at the moment ialso dont think we have been given correct footwear for these distances.

You got me thinking now

It cant be 14 miles, no way could i do that. I figured 1 step is 50cm (give or take 1cm) so 2 steps is a meter, so divide 28k by 2 which is 14000 meters walked, dived by 1000 for KM = 14 km

However not ever step is going to be a full 50 cm stride such as steps etc so it prob less than that in truth. My head hurts now

But do you burn the same amount of calories regardless of how big the steps are, and therefore that's why some pedometers just count the steps and it doesn't really matter how far you've 'actually' walked, just how far you've 'technically' walked with the number of calories you've burned off with the number of steps?

I would say my head hurts now, but it always hurts

Yeah its crazy

All i do know is that my delivery took 4.30 hrs today and now my legs ache and i dont need a pedometer or fancy phone aps to tell me that.

Talking of aps I am off to play Angry Birds now

They usually work in 1000 steps every half mile maybe yours doesnt i cant believe you walk over 14 miles so maybe it is km which would mean you wakled 8 ish miles that day thats ok, unless is was in the welsh valleys
there is one overtime grabber at our place that must walk about 20 miles aday he does 2 1/2 roundssome days CRaZy
