- You are correct in the distance of RA, but you have an error in your math somewhere. Try this link: http://www.wherearewe.co.nz/averagespeed.html Looks like a much more reasonable 84.666 average.

- Bill, I think your problem is that 1:46 is not the same as 1.46. The :46 indicates 46 seconds, so the lap time in minutes is 1 + 46/60 or ~1.767 minutes. 2.54 miles in 1.767 minutes is 2.54/1.76 or

- Hmm. This seems so simple. Something must have addled my math wits. Seems like 2.54 miles/1.46 minutes = X miles/60 minutes or 2.540/1.46=X/60 or (2.540*60)/1.46 = 104.38 Must be losing my marbles. O
