Use steps per breath as a quick gauge of how you are performing.
For most training runs, and especially in high intensity workouts, 4 steps/breath is where you want to be, above or below this point will give you insight in how to adjust your effort.
Counting two separate things at once is hard.
I recommend tuning into your breath first, make sure it’s consistent.
Notice the exact point you begin inhaling and the exact point your exhale ends. Do it again. And again.
Once you’re tuned to your breath, start counting steps at the start of your inhale and stop when your exhale ends.
Count as needed when you want an immediate gauge on your performance.
