Depends on your stride.
A mile is 5280 feet.
Answer:
The Romans measured their miles in paces (strides). The term they used was "Mille passus" (a thousand paces). This distance was about 1620 yards in today's measure, slightly shorter than the 1760 yards in a modern mile. Using the Roman's pace and today's measurement this would make a modern mile 1086 paces.
