    Sweet!

    I think it's interesting that they didn't have anyone walk the trip. I suppose most people know the speed they walk at, and could calculate it based on distance, but I always appreciate when people are reminded that walking is a viable transportation option for short trips. Depending on the person they could have easily beat the bus!
