These parameters are:. If you feel that 3 miles an hour is your average walking speed then simply deduct some time from the walk. From my experience you will have to be moving quickly and not enjoying the scenery of the walk to maintain 3 mph throughout the whole walk.
Anyway, so now you know the calculator settings go ahead, choose a walk and then calculate the walking time. So now you've worked out your walking time for your chosen excursion all there is left to do is to get out there and enjoy the walk!

Whether you are walking for fitness or you have registered or a charity walk or competition, it helps to know long it will take you to walk a mile at different walking paces. You also want to translate that into common race and event distances such as the 5K, 10K, marathon, or half-marathon and look at typical finishing times. Here is some basic information for common race distances:. The charts below will help you to translate walking event distances into time, kilometers, and miles at various fitness-walking paces.
While there is no standardized criteria for pace categories, studies have indicated that a moderate walking pace is roughly 3—5 miles per hour. These paces may seem fast, but it is typical for people to walk faster than usual when at a group event or competition.
There are several ways to measure or calculate your walking speed , including phone apps and GPS watches, as well as low-tech options using a known distance such as around a running track and a stopwatch.
To determine your pace, try a calculator. With these charts, you should be able to get a rough estimate of how long it will take you to walk a given distance at a fitness walking pace without making stops.
You'll have to add in more time if you have to wait at intersections for the crossing signal, make rest stops, stop to take photos, play Pokemon Go, etc. Timing yourself over a mile can help you predict your finish time for an organized walking event up to 10 kilometers. Sometimes a race will want to know your pace in minutes per mile when you register. It's best to warm up and then walk a mile nonstop at your best pace to time it. Do this three times to find an average.
Before you register for a longer race or event that has a cutoff time, you will want to predict your finish time. It's important that you only enter events that you know you can complete under the time limit.
For a half-marathon prediction, add 20 seconds per mile to the pace you were able to do to finish a 10K. For a marathon prediction, multiply your 10 kilometers finish time by five. Training can do wonders. By gradually building your walking distance and paying attention to your posture and walking form, you will be able to walk faster and longer.
It's always a good idea to build up your walking time steadily from shorter to longer distances. Most treadmills also include an incline feature, which lifts the belt of the treadmill at an angle, simulating walking uphill. This makes it more difficult, which means that you may have to slow down the speed. However, you may be able to burn more calories because you work harder. This may be the optimal rate for burning fat, but you will still burn more calories by working out harder, which will lead to faster weight loss.
Walking can be a great way to burn calories to lose weight. The amount of calories burned depends on your weight and how fast you walk.
