How do I convert the amount of kms walked to miles and the time walked to be able to put it in exercise done today e.g. Walked my dogs for roughly an hour and 40 mins to 2 hrs and 20 mins and the distance was 8.2 kms roughly.

    8 kms = 5 miles. So if you walked for 2 hours, that's 2.5 mph.

    There's around 1.6km to a mile, so you walked 8.2/1.6 = 5.125 miles.

    A quick way is to type "8.2km in miles" into Google and it converts for you.

    Can't work out what you mean about the different times, but if it was two hours it would be 5.125/2 = 2.56 mph.

    Search "Walking". One of the options is "Walking 2.5mph leisurely pace"
