Okay so earlier this afternoon I walked from 3 pm to 5 p.m. . Well I made some stops but still does that count as 2 hours?
No only I wanted to walk but I need to get out of the house .

    two hours of walking can be different for everyone. I suggest you use an app like Mapmyrun the next time you walk if you want to calculate your distance.

    Distance will be dependent on speed as well as time. Can you look at a map and guess?

    Bit uncalled for, DYELB.

    Yes, it'll depend how far you went - can you use google maps to estimate? Or do you know roughly how fast you were going? 4mph is pretty darn fast, but a reasonable guess is you were doing 2 - 3 miles an hour, allowing for stops.

    Yes, 3p to 5p counts as two hours. Exactly, even.

    (What's with people not answering the question by talking about maps and math and whatnot? :huh:)

    It's a how long is a piece of string question.

    Two hours for me is 9-10 miles, for some it might be 6 miles.

    Doh, I missed the second question. The title was a question though. Got that one :wink:

    distance = time x speed

    I'll check my maps

    I've used Google maps.
    Describe your track, like you are asking for walking directions
    i.e. Corner of x and y to Corner of y and z.
    Corner of Y and Z to Corner of Z and A.
    Corner of Z and A to Corner of A and X to Corner of x and y (starting point) Should give you a reasonable estimate of the distance traveled.

    It would depend on how long the stops were for?
