How do I put in this exercise?

PJFaber

This week I have had to forego the gym and take my children to a daily camp at the zoo. I have been walking around the zoo each day and have gotten 36,600 steps on two consecutive days. I haven't kept track of how long I walked but would walk for a while and then sit and read for awhile. How would I put in this information? My pedometer doesn't tell how many miles I walk and I am not sure how far the loop is around the zoo. Please help me learn how to put this in exercise.

there's roughly 2000 steps to a mile, so that means you did a little over 18 miles over a couple days, say on average you walked slow cause you had the kids around 2 to 2.5 miles per hour you can probably figure something out by this. Maybe 4.5 hours of 2 mile per hour pace.
