    If this is the same test I did before, it assumed I was on flat ground and distances as the crow flies. I scored pretty good because I'm only about a mile to the grocery, drug store, etc. Trouble is, that drugstore is 1000' down (and back up) a very steep & wooded slope.

    Same for me - and it gave me an 82. We're close to town, but it's a pretty big hill back up to our house. My daughter can walk it, but she can't bike it. I can bike it, but I really wouldn't bike with groceries.
