1,965,920

That's roughly the number of footfalls I had in 2005.

1117 miles * 5280 ft/mi / 3 ft/stride.

That's in just one year... nearly 1 million heal strikes for each heal, 2 million toe-offs, 2 million hamstring contractions followed by 2 million quad contractions to extend for the next strike.

Isn't it amazing that we can still move at all after all of that?

All the more reason to take care of ourselves with stretching and taking the occasional day off.
