Stating the obvious

I drove a total of 4,000 walking steps to pick up my pizza and come back home, which is equivalent of  about half of the way into the stratosphere near the poles on Earth.

The time it would take me to walk is equivalent to listening to your favorite entire 10 song album.

I rode on the equivalent of 7 large male silverback gorillas to travel to my destination.
