Go Peony, go! Wow a 14 minute mile...I have been averaging in at 3 miles an hour even in the rain!

I figured that if I were trying to walk 17 miles a day, like our friends, it would take close to 6 hours or more with out any breaks. Then one would have to set up camp, cook, break up camp and so on in there too. Sounds like a realistic distance to me. Barring blisters and other unscheduled events of course! Hope yours will heal quickly!
