How fast does a person walk per mile?

Answer 1

Depends how long their legs are & how fit the person is.

Answer 2

Hi - I regularly walk as much as possible, on a good day ie - no wind resistance or aiding I can work a mile in 16 minutes. This is three & three quarter miles. On other days when the wind can be influencing or delaying I can do a mile in anytime between 14 - 18 minutes respectively.

Remember the time taken is also determined by terrain & gradence ( hilly, slopey etc ).

If you are asking this inregards to fitness, have a cold pint of water before you set of as this will not only be healthy but also you will be less likely to drink a carb ladden drink when you get back.

All the best
