How many paces are a mile?

Question:

Answers:
If I extend my stride just a little, it's about a yard, and there are 1760 yards in a mile.

Other Answers:
It depends on the size of your stride. I think.

1 thousand paces

If you know any centurions, they do it in a thousand, which is where we get the term mile from.

walk a mile and count your paces.its typically different for everyone

5280 feet

Everybody's paces (foot steps) are different sizes, so you can't figure out a mile unless you walk a mile and count YOUR paces.

About 2000 because there are 1760 yards in a mile and most people's pace is just under a yard.

5280 feet (approximate paces)

small paces

If your pace is 30 inches 2114 paces in a mile

5280 feet in a mile
I guess depends on the size of your step.
Probably divide that number by 3. or a yard

i dont know, ive never counted my strides while walking a mile-actually i dont remember ever walking that far by choice!

First get your average stride. Set off a course of ten feet, walk it as you normally would, and count your steps. Divide the number of steps into ten to get your average stride. If it was 5 for example, your stride would be 2 feet. There are 5,280 feet in a mile. Do the math. In this example, 2,640 paces.

I'm Positive its 5280!

It depends on a couple of things.

1. It depends on the size of your foot.
2. It depends on the spacing of your stride.

Each person has a different stride/foot size combination, and thus, would have a different number of paces per mile.

1,760 paces in a mile.Reason being, there is 5,280 feet in a mile and your normal stride is three feet.
