[QUOTE="Garthanos, post: 7088822, member: 82504"] Using that long distance runner for even 2 hours would give you 25 miles of travel for a move 5 character 30 for a 6 and 35 for 7 .... and honestly you end up significantly better over land speeds than horses. Pushing horses in realistic ways as hard as a human might push themselves will kill the horse (we are actually much more tough than we give ourself credit) Someone able to Run for 24 hours would have 15 times their normal overland travel distance (ok that is not taking a 6/8 hour rest) assuming you do rest call it 10 times your normal overland in emergency you jump off your mount and hoof it yourself. Unless you have a heroic mount you can empower in some fashion. Glimli walking is 2.5 mph running call it 12.5 mph (sprinting could be faster jogging less but that is not the description) sustaining that for a full 24 hours ahem that would be insane but going 300 miles in a day pre-automobile that is epic. And even the much more likely 8 hours you are talking 100 miles. We must save the hobbits. OK my computations may be using more real world numbers than in game. BUT The descriptions of Gilgameshes ability are that extreme he was epic. [/QUOTE]
