I feel tired already

Fun fact: The average person walks the equivalent of almost two times around the world in a lifetime.

The average person walks about 3,500 steps per day, and the circumference of the Earth at the equator is about 24,901 miles. That means that over the course of an average lifetime, a person will walk about 97,090,00 steps. If we assume that each step is about 0.75 meters long, that means a person will walk about 72,817,500 meters, or 79,634,186 yards in a lifetime. That’s the equivalent of walking 1.8 times around the world at the equator!
