I notice some of you walk 4-5 miles at a time. How long does it generally take you to walk 1 mile?

I can walk about a 12-minute mile at my fastest pace.0

Sadly I take about 15-20 minutes a mile.0

I walk a mile in about 12-15 minutes pushing a double stroller.0

I'm in the 15-20 range. usually 2 miles tops for me. Maybe the speed will increase with time! Thanks for the input and motivation!0

Just keep at it. I've done 10-mile walks in two hours, but I didn't do that my first or even 15th time out.0 -
It takes me about 20 minutes now. But at first it was more like 30 minutes.0

I'm a pretty speedy walker doing 4.5mph normally, but I push a little faster to get 5.0mph in for daily hour-long walks I like to take. Usually clocking between 12-15min/mile for me also.0

I do 4 or 5 miles a day (today I flaked out). I range from 4 miles per to 4.5 miles per so that's, what, 12-15 minutes?0

(And keep in mind that the longer you legs, the longer your stride and the faster you'll go with less energy.)0

I average 12-15 minutes per mile. It takes building up to, you will get there soon enough. Just keep pushing yourself.0

I have very, very short legs and it takes me about 20 minutes to walk a mile going as fast as I can. Even when I jog and run I can only go a mile in about 15 minutes. Energy expended equals that of someone going 4-4.5 mph (I can easily burn 100+ calories per ten minutes) when I walk, but my legs just can't go any faster.0

I'm in the 13-16 range.. It depends on how far I walk...0

3 mph currently.0

20 mins usually, when first started it took forever to walk one mile so glad down to 20,0

On treadmill at speed 4 it takes me 15 minutes and 2 seconds. That's with alternating weekends.0
-
It takes me 1 hour and 10 minutes to walk 3 miles. I did 4 miles today! Took about 1 hour and 25 minutes.0
-
It usually takes me about 15 minutes if I'm walking fast and maybe jogging some. I have short short legs so while i'm going as fast as I can, it's just not as fast as most people!
I usually do about 4 to 4.5 miles in 1 hour and 10 minutes!0 -
3 miles in 45 minutes0
-
Long legs -- 3.5 to 4.0 mph average.0
-
I walk anywhere from 2.5 to 3.5 miles an hour at any given time. My quickest mile so far has been about 16 minutes (i think?)0
