Kimberly, my wife is still using the elliptical regularly from the purchase about 2 years ago without any related issues. the sideways span is exactly one foot to the center of each foot. the front/back distance is two and a half feet based on the tip of my toes to the back of the heel (I have a 10-inch foot). I am 6 feet tall and my wife is 5 foot 4 inches and the elliptical is a good fit for both of us. I don't use much and prefer biking. I hope this helps as we have been very pleased with the product and I can be pretty tough, especially with purchasing online, which is the majority of my shopping. enjoy!

Nikki, I am 5'9 long legs and I returned the board as I thought the board was NOT long enough for me. My stride/glide was not long enough for the endurance I was looking for. For me...I need 7 or 8 ft board. I hope this helps.

It depends on your height and length of stride, but the internet gives approximates. For me, at about 5'3", it's about 2500 steps. I don't worry about how many miles I walk, only if I can gradually add more steps to my daily routine.

The width is usually two to there inches and the length is several feet. For a lower extremity I use enough to go from the top of the foot, up to the knee.

Actually, I count my steps, and I do not bother about distance. I aim for 10,000 steps/day, which equals approx. 5 miles (actually 4.73 miles using my actual stride of 30 inches). Impossible to tell you how many (Hammer) steps = 1 mile, because each person's stride (step) is a different length. There are 5280 feet in a mile. If you assume your stride = 30 inches (2.5 feet), then there are 2,112 strides (steps) in a mile. To keep it simple, count 2,000 steps as a mile (+/-). Using 2,000 steps/mile keeps the math simple when you read the pedometer. For example, if you walk 4,500 steps, call it 2 and 1/4 miles. Your stride and your mileage may vary. Good luck. F.COW

My mom is 5'9" and has a very long stride and it's fine. You can adjust the handle up, as well. However, if you will be walking so much I would recommend the BOB. We use the BOB for walking and the GT for shopping and short walks around the block. The BOB is also more accommodating for a longer stride.

The 320 was just an example. If you are shorter, your step length will be as well. Place a marker and then walk 10 steps from there with your normal stride. Mark again. Now measure the length. Calculate the stride length by dividing the total distance by 10. Yes it was very confusing to set up, to say the least. Hope this helps.

Right off hand I do not know all I know is I got it for my son who has gout and he is 6 foot and I know this adjusts to his height . It is the normal size of all walker. Well made and the wheels really help . If you have someone that needs one this is the one.

My wife can use it but I cannot it does not work with my stride and I am 5 feet 9 inches tall. My wife is 5 foot and 6 inches. I do not know what the stride length is for sure. Also we are selling ours because your feet do not stay stationary on it. It is a hard plastic and our feet slide around too much.

About a foot if not a couple inches longer. This brand was the best out of the two I bought.

Depends on how athletic and intense you want your stride to be. If beginner, it is a good length because you do not want to be discouraged. I am 5 feet, female, and the 6 feet is great, but am thinking of getting a longer one too for intense days. I put weights on the sides because when I do intensity slides, sometimes the whole thing slides (I have new wood floors that are slick). The sides are pretty solid, but I just found I was moving the board when doing intervals.

Sorry, just saw the question, I'm not sure if I understand you correctly, but if you mean the distance, in height, between each step it's about 4 inches.

I'm 5'10"... my stride is one of my biggest concerns whenever I research travel systems. NO it's not hard to walk behind it due to the adjustable handle. It extends in length and has three angles to select... I'm 110% happily codependent on my Orbit. I don't like to think about what I would've done without it. There are many opinions about the Orbit. My suggestion/advice consider the Orbit as the investment that it is and then become familiar with your investment. I just purchased the Toddler car seats for my twin boys. Any other 'system' I would've broken my back or at least pulled something serious. Hope this helps. Good luck I'm 5'10"... my stride is one of my biggest concerns whenever I research travel systems.

yes, you have her walk 10 steps, measure the distance, divide by ten and enter the result as the length of her stride.

maybe 1/3 inch, but the heel is cupped. It doesn't fit well in dress shoes or my earth kalso shoes but it is fine in walking sneakers (like New Balance)-which I wear more when my foot bothers me or I am out walking and I want to keep it more padded. I found the pads to be quite helpful.

Yes, in inches or centimeters, and yes it will give miles based on the stride you set. My only complaint is I wish the display numerals were larger.
