Is it possible to walk a longer distance, at a faster speed and end up taking fewer steps?

Here's what I mean.

One walk was 2.83k at a rate of 3.2 kph - steps 4940
Today walk was 3.06k at a rate of 4.32 kph - steps 4701.

I guess all these gadgets don't lie, it just seems weird to me.

    Probably you were taking shorter steps in one workout and longer in the other.

    That makes sense. Since I was walking faster, that would Reeaaallly make sense.
