How Does Step Length Calculation Work?

Step length varies based on several factors that our calculator considers:

  • Height: Taller people generally have longer step lengths
  • Gender: Men typically have slightly longer steps than women of the same height
  • Pace: Faster walking/running usually means longer steps
  • Age: Step length can decrease with age (not factored in our basic calculator)

Formula: Step Length = Height × 0.413 (female) or 0.415 (male) × Pace Modifier
