The number of steps in 2 miles depends on the individual's stride length, which varies by gender, height, and walking speed. On average:
- For women with an average stride length of about 2.2 feet, 1 mile is approximately 2,400 steps, so 2 miles would be about 4,800 steps.
- For men with an average stride length of about 2.5 feet, 1 mile is approximately 2,112 steps, so 2 miles would be about 4,224 steps.
Another source estimates that walking 2 miles at a moderate pace (around 3 mph) corresponds to roughly 4,500 steps on average, with women taking about 4,650 steps and men about 4,420 steps for 2 miles
. In summary, 2 miles generally equates to around 4,200 to 4,800 steps depending on stride length and gender, with a typical average near 4,500 steps.
