You need a new pedometer or you need to work a game with a team that is running an offense more than the 4-corners.

Plus, pedometers are horrible for measuring referee distances. The stride length is so irregular, it can't be accurate. Pedometers are far better for runners/walkers where the stride length is generally consistent.
