What speed did I walk? When I have no clue!

I walked at a brisk pace for 40 minutes today. How do I know if I walked 2.5mph or 3mph or 4mph???? I dont know how far I walked- I just know I walked for a good 40 minutes at a brisk pace-- (i was breathing heavy and pushing myself to keep my pace.) Anyways-- how do I know for today?
We walked on a trail and from where we started it was 1.5 miles to downtown... but we had to stop early and go back- i dont know how far down the 1.5 miles we were!

I've always heard that an average pace is about 3 miles per hour, so maybe you could use that as a starting point? 4 miles per hour is pretty fast pace.

When I am in doubt I will pop over to this site for a little help. It has a bunch of different activities calculators.

Just scroll down a tiny bit and you will see a walking calculator.

Happy Hoofing!!! :bigsmile:
