Nov. 23rd, 2012 08:16 pmThe speed of the naath...
recently (last few months):
Running on a treadmill - averaging 8mph topping out at nearly 10mph mostly 7-13km at a time
Running outdoors - averaging about 7mph. most 5km but some 10-13 miles and 10km as well.
Walking - averaging a little over 3mph. mostly over ~3miles but I can do that most of the day if I break for food at reasonable intervals.
Cycling - averaging a little under 10mph; marginally slower on the old bike than the new. Top speed around 18-20mph. That's a travel-time average for Cambridge commuting rather than a moving average; I guess my moving average is more like 12mph on the shinybike. Averaging ~7mph on the 35miles to Kentwell; including time spent stopped in the pub for food.
Swimming in a pool - averaging 1.25mph. Pretty constant whether I do 1/4, 1/2 or a whole mile.
Onna train - about 60mph? I've not measured the train speed but it does the 60miles to LST in just over an hour (that's including time spent in stations). 106mph on the E* which is probably the fastest train I've been on.
My world goes past pretty slowly compared to people who drive a lot I guess... then again, I see a lot of people in traffic jams on my commute so maybe not.
