How to Measure Your Stride

• 1). Walk around a bit before measuring your stride. If you start immediately, you might get a false measurement.
  
  
• 2). Measure a specific distance, such as 25 feet. Mark the start and finish points.
  
  
• 3). Stand on the start point and then begin walking at a normal stride. Stop at the end point, counting your steps along the way.
  
  
• 4). Divide the distance walked by the number of steps.
  
  
• 5). Repeat three different times.
  
  
• 6). Add all 3 stride totals, then divide by 3. This is the average length of your stride.
