Movement Rate

A creatures MR equals his races BMR+ his AglB.

When traveling a character takes an hour to gain in elevation, in meters :

60*MR*(Move/3)

The number of horizontal Kilometers a character can )travel in an hour on hilly terrain:

0.3*MR(Move/3)

It assumes that you will take half an hour for each horizontal mile and each 1,000 feet of elevation gain, so a 10 mile, 3,000 foot hike would take 6:30 by book time.

The number of horizontal Kilometers a character can travel in an hour on level terrain:

0.65*MR(Move/3) The Marathon des Sables is 250km in 6 days. Granted they're not carrying all their water, but also they're running each stage as fast as they can, during the day, not on flat well-trodden terrain. = 41 2/3 km A day

Rune Gjeldnes pulled off a 3,000 mile, 3 month expedition solo, without resupply. =53.65km DAy

According to the U S Cavalry, a horse can cover some 30-40 miles a day, but can be pushed to double that, but then will be pretty much spent for several days while he recuperates. = 48.28 km a day

I was also given the 20 miles/day number, growing up; but I think that's for a man in reasonably good shape, who's accustomed to walking. 32.2 km Day

Many trained walkers finish the 26.2 mile Portland Marathon in about seven hours, with no breaks. 6 km an hour

the Incas who ran huge distances regularly had a trade-off system of way-stations, and a messanger didn't have to do it every day. But twenty miles, I believe, is the most quoted figure for a single messanger at a spell.

The average day's march for the Roman Army was about 14 - 20 miles, depending on available daylight. The complete length of a Legion of soldiers could run up to about 0.7 of a mile in and of itself, when all the pack mules, supplies and artillery are included. Soldiers would generally set out with 17 day's rations each, weighing in at about 1.6lbs per day.

a strong runner can travel 100 miles over mountainous terrain in a single day. = 161 km a day
