RocHed11 Posted October 8, 2019 #1 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Hey all, I did a search and couldn't find the information I want. I remember reading it on a previous post and the question I have is How many laps around the promenade deck is a mile. I'm starting to walk and want to take advantage of our sea days. We are on the Star, Nov 4 to Hawai'i. Thanks, T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TM Posted October 8, 2019 #2 Share Posted October 8, 2019 Right about 3 laps = 1 mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take the stairs and stay off the elevator! If it's raining out, walk inside on the upper decks. You'll get pretty close to the same amount of distance as walking on deck 7.

Times Prince Posted October 8, 2019 #4 Share Posted October 8, 2019 They usually have a sign posted (I recall seeing it near the aft) telling the approximate distance as number of laps/mile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare cr8tiv1 Posted October 8, 2019 #5 Share Posted October 8, 2019 It seems as though I am always walking against traffic. I was once "reminded" that there is a correct path, but can never remember it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You were not the only one walking against traffic. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want to optimize your path so when on the sun side of the ship you are walking so the sun is not going in your eyes but over your shoulder. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can remember that! Thanks. Not that i walk the promenade often. I can do ... maybe 2 laps ... before I need refueling. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RocHed11 Posted October 9, 2019 Author #12 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Do people mostly power walk or just stroll? T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rcprncss Posted October 9, 2019 #13 Share Posted October 9, 2019 Has anyone ever seen someone run? I have seen a ship tour video and saw lots of walkers and was wondering if there are runners too. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
