People take on average 10,000 steps in
a day, adding up to 115,000 miles in a lifetime, enough to circle
the planet four times.
The feet of an individual weighing 130
pounds absorb 500 pounds of pressure with every step. This impact
reaches about five million pounds of pressure each day.
In the same person, feet are frequently
different in size.
Average number of miles per day women
walk = 10
Average number of miles per day men
walk = 7
Number of bones = 28
Together, both feet comprise one
quarter of the body’s bones
