Walk Time Distance Chart
With this chart it is possible to work out the approx start/finish times
for any walk from a 5+5er to a 8+8er
This information assumes the following:
average walk speed = 2mph (e.g. allow 3 hours to complete 6 miles)
average duration of lunch (with puddings!) 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 hours
(this is quite a generous allowance and many a walk has finished under these times,
do take into consideration the number of stiles and the type of terrain you will be walking on as well).
| Lunch times | Miles before lunch |
plus | Miles after lunch |
Start Time | Finish Time |
| midday until 1.30pm | 5 6 7 8 |
+ | 5 6 7 8 |
9.30am 9.00am 8.30am 8.00am |
4.00pm 4.30pm 5.00pm 5.30pm |
| 12.30 until 2pm | 5 6 7 8 |
+ | 5 6 7 8 |
10.00am 9.30am 9.00am 8.30am |
4.30pm 5.00pm 5.30pm 6.00pm |
| 1pm until 2.30pm | 5 6 7 8 |
+ | 5 6 7 8 |
10.30am 10.00am 9.30am 9.00am |
5.00pm 5.30pm 6.00pm 6.30pm |

How to find the start finish times for a 5 + 6 mile walk;
Select the desired lunch time, say 1pm, then find 5 in the 'miles before
lunch' column, and scan across to the start time column you should see the
start time as 10.30am.
Find 6 in the 'miles after lunch' column, and scan
across to the start time column, the approx. finish time should be 5.30pm
