Runtastic Pedometer

[Shaman Mao]

Wore a pedometer on my new delivery when P&L came in last year. 17500 steps which equated to roughly 7.75 miles in 4 hours. No idea how fast I was walking though.

The last time I did a Coopers test, I did 2500m in 12 minutes.........that puts me in the very good range for my age (and a VO2max of over 44mls/kg/min)........and that only works out at just over 7 mph.

If you can do that then you should go for the olympics.......you'd do great

This isnt an exact science,

No Jimmy it is absolute bullshit from start to finish.
Perhaps if you shoved your pedometer up your arse and gave us the results from that, they might be more credible.

Try map my walk + Jimmy im with most on here your speed is way off mate

[luddite]

I don't average 7mph on a rural!

[mojothefishmo]

Another google store app i used it today average speed was 2.6 in 7 miles but i walk uphill at lot!!climbing to 596 feet if you can believe that :)

[mojothefishmo]

Plus google average walking speed for males and females :)

Jimmy - 8mph is faster than a world record holding Olympic gold winning athlete can walk.
A 7 year old cannot walk a mile in 10 minutes.

You must be seriously overestimating the distances involved.
Basic maths.

And it proves I tire as the day goes on, as the walk to my start point from work is say 8 mins pushing a hct, but the exact same walk to go to school from my house to school, with no baggage, takes me 10 mins! Im getting too old for this BS

If you can walk a mile to the start of your duty in 8 minutes you are walking at half the speed a 4 minute miler runs.
It isn't very likely is it.

I can see what your saying, and its looks dodgy.

No - it doesn't look dodgy.
It is just gibberish.

I mapped the duty I covered today on mapmyrun.
The basic duty was just over 3 miles. Add on approx. 500 x 20m for the garden paths = approx. 4miles in total including walking there and back to the DO.

3h 30 for the duty means my average walking speed was just over 1mph.

Oh crikey clash, they've roped you in
Next you'll be wanting your own pedometer thing for Xmas, you know, so you can work it out properly
