How far are you willing to walk for food? What distance is reasonable? Me, I'll walk about a mile each way. If it's further I'd probably choose to go hungry.
>>
>>8268531
Three miles, any further and the food would be cold by the time I get home. Gone with out cars for a long time, three miles doesn't seem that long or far to me.

Half of that seems more reasonable though, but I know good food places farther off.
>>
lol if i had to walk i would just eat BEANS and be a BEAN BOY and have no g/f and FART MY SELF TO DEATH via a cork up m y ass
>>
>>8268539
this desu
>>
>>8268534
Damn, 3 mi would be about 50 mins at my walking pace, how can you have time for that?
>>
i don't quite understand the question

i mean, there's a bunch of fast food places super close (>2 minute walk from my house) but that's garbage shit, i never eat there

if i was starving and those shit places weren't around, i'd walk until i died

usually i just take a one of my cars or if i'm feeling /fit/ my skateboard to the best grocery stores

walking sucks desu
>>
>>8268531
Same here. Any further than that I'd rather cook some egg and ramen.
>>
>>8268552
a mile for me is 7-9min if I'm just walking, less if I'm trying to speed walk.

Another advantage however is also finding short cuts through alleys and parking lots to cut down time.
>>
>>8268565
>7-9min
LOL

Only your toddler relatives would believe some horseshit like that.
>>
>>8268565
7-9 minute a mile walking is bullshit. The world record for running is like 4 minutes.
>>
>>8268563
Yup. One mile seems about right. I ask because I'm a truck driver and often find myself parked in some weird light industrial complex when I run out of hours and have to spend the night there. At that point it comes down to "should I walk over a mile for a hot meal because I haven't had food for 20 hours", or "should I eat a cold can of Wolf chili"

I think one mile is reasonable, two is pushing it since I'll have to walk back.
>>
No car, no bike and inadequate public transportation so I walk 4 miles both ways once a month or so to go to my favorite bakery.
>>
>>8268565

Total bullshit, that means you could just about walk a qualifying time for the boston marathon?

For reference, olympic speedwalkers about about a 7 min pace

I think you may not know how far a mile is

>>8268565

>>8268584

Take short cuts through town, cuts the walking time while still making the distance.
>>
>>8268531
I walk a mile each way just to buy my groceries for the week.
>>
>>8268565
>a 7 minute mile
>just walking
>a sub-00:07:00 mile
>yup still just walking only a bit quickly

You fundamentally don't understand what a minute is/time in general; how long a mile is; or both. Either way, you're fuckin dum.

>>8268585
Get a bike. Even a foldable on you can shove in your cab...
>instantly gain 10x mileage for food procurement
>>
>>8268531
4 blocks.

My legs aren't made for walking.
>>
>>8268630
You are not making the distance, you are cutting the distance. So if you are taking ~30 minutes to get there, you are only actually walking 1.5 miles
>>
Do I have other food? I would rather not walk. If it's walk or starve, I'll walk until I get to the food or die trying obviously.
>>
>>8268658
The location would still be 3mi from home
>>
>>8268679
Not that guy, but the distance to a location is based on the most efficient path to it. If there is a shorter path, that shorter path is the distance.
>>
I have a car
>>
>>8268679

>be you
>on starting line of 400m sprint
>hear the starting gun
>figure out a way to cut the running time, while still making the distance
>cut across the infield, then loop back around
>"wow a 10sec 400m, i guess i win the gold"
>celebrate by walking 4 miles to mcdonalds
>it takes me only 30 mins

aren't shortcuts the best
>>
>>8268772
more inside the race track shorter the laps

>not knowing the difference between further and farther
>>
>>8268775
That is why they use staggered starts
>>
>>8268531
Depends how good the food is, and if I'm eating it there or bringing it back home.
