On average, people walk around 1300-1500 miles per year. However, the amount of walking an individual does depends largely on his or her's overall physical health, where they live, and their access to motorized transportation. Someone who is overweight or has breathing problems would walk less than someone who is deemed healthy. People living in urban areas take more steps per day than those residing in the suburbs or country. Those who lack a car (or do not have access to reliable transportation) would walk more than those who do.

*I have a fit-bit step tracker, it has been exactly 4 months of walking from 1.5 to 5 miles a day and as of today I just logged in 250 miles. That would put me at only about 1,100 miles a year ...and I work out and do yoga.
I think the 1,500 a year for average is too high. I will be walking that soon, as I keep going a bit farther every day, but 1500 is "above average"! That is saying that if you are "average" you are walking 4 miles a day.
An average person does not go beyond 2.5 miles a day. That puts the person at 912.5 miles a year.
The average high school student runs a speed of 15 mph. This all depends on how fit the person is. Most generally a person's speed will depend on how much physical activity the person engages in per day.
Most adults can run at about 7 mph in a short distance. That would be at top speed. If the same person ran a mile it would probably take about 30-40 minutes depending if they are tired or fully energized.
3 miles per hour
If you walk quickly but do not run you can average 6 feet per second or 15 x 6 = 90 feet in 15 seconds ( home plate to first base)
2 hours.
Halfway. Then a person must start walking out.
1.5 miles
a person can run miles or even yards far
The average human will travel around 700,000 miles in a lifetime, which is roughly equivalent to traveling to the moon and back three times. This estimate takes into account daily commutes, travel for work or leisure, and other forms of transportation.
Dont worry so much about how far to walk, start with a goal of 30 minutes per day if possible. See how far you get. Enjoy walking, its so good for you.
As far as they want
If you walk at a steady 4 miles per hour you will walk 1 mile in 15 minutes.
The average office employee takes an average of 1,600 steps per day. It is recommended that you walk 10,000 steps per day to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
3 miles, walking speed is approximately 3MPH
