Walking 10,000 steps typically takes between 70 and 100 minutes for most people, depending on walking speed, stride length, and individual factors like age and fitness level.

• On average, 10,000 steps is roughly equivalent to about 5 miles. For a person with an average stride length, it takes about 2,000 steps to walk one mile

• At a moderate walking pace of about 3 miles per hour (roughly 100 steps per minute), it takes about 100 minutes (1 hour 40 minutes) to complete 10,000 steps

• Walking faster at around 3.5 to 4 miles per hour (brisk pace) can reduce this time to about 70 to 80 minutes

• Walking slower, such as at a leisurely pace of 2 to 2.5 mph, can extend the time to 120 minutes or more

• Factors affecting the time include stride length (longer strides mean fewer steps per mile), treadmill speed or outdoor terrain, and incline

• For healthy adults, a cadence of about 100 steps per minute is considered brisk walking and corresponds to moderate-intensity exercise

In summary, expect to spend roughly 1 hour 10 minutes to 1 hour 40 minutes walking 10,000 steps at a typical brisk to moderate pace, with variations depending on individual walking speed and conditions.
