What is One mile every 10 minutes?

One mile every 10 minutes means you walk or run one mile in the time it takes to count from 1 to 10.

Imagine you're playing a game with your friend. Every time you say a number, you take a step forward. When you get to 10, you've gone all the way around the block, that’s one mile! So if you can do this without stopping, you’re moving at a steady pace.

If you walk or run one mile every 10 minutes, it means you're going about as fast as a slow-moving car. Imagine walking with your backpack full of books, not too fast, but not too slow either. You’d be able to cover the length of a football field in just over a minute.

If you did this for 60 minutes straight, you'd go six miles! That’s like walking around your neighborhood six times, or even more than that if it's a big block.
