Pace Beads

Pace Beads:

What they are:

A way to keep track of your paces and measure distance.

How to use them:

1. Stand at your start point

2. Step with right leg

3. Step with left leg (Count)

(Where your heel hits the ground... that is one pace from the start point.

4. Repeat steps 2 & 3, counting on the left step each time.

Measure your pace:

The point from your standing start, to stepping on the left leg (at the heel) is one pace.  

Measure that distance and you know how long your pace is.  

Mine is about 4 feet.  So, if you do the math... Roughly 84 paces is 100m for me.

(***I was counting to 70 for some reason... Time to re-calculate***)

Every time I count to 84, I move a bead down.

At the end of 9 lower beads... Move a top bead down to know you've gone 1,000m or 1km
