How far/long is your commute?

25 mile drive to Luton airport - 30 mins
400 mile flight to Edinburgh - 1 hour
Taxi ride to work - 20mins

That doesnt include time spent sitting at the airport but luckily I travel up on a Monday and fly home on the Thursday night, so the same again as above on the way home.
 
Just over 2 miles, want to start walking a couple of days a week but haven't really picked the best time of year...
 
1.2 miles! I tried walking once this time of year but it was icey and I fell on my back and spun down the pavement... So a 3 minute drive it is :D

EDIT: Forgot to add this is my new job that I haven't started yet. It's shift work so I will walk on occasion!

That is shocking laziness.

Mine's 18 miles drive and about a ten minute walk in to work, I park on a local street instead of in the car park because I got sick of paying £4 a day and found somewhere else to park.

Takes up to an hour, more like 35 minutes at weekends but there's always traffic.
 
About 40 miles each way, which takes 90mins on the train.

Leave the house at 6:50 & get to my desk about 8:20.
Leave the office at 17:25 and I'm home at about 19:10.

My daughter goes to bed between 7-7:30pm so I see her for less than 2hrs during the week :(

I should have mentioned. This is a new job I start in a few weeks! Lol forgot to add that. My old job was further away and about a 30 minute walk.

This one I am planning on walking to on certain shifts. :D
 
Wow, some epic commutes going on here!

I need to remember this when i'm grumbling about not getting to the gym before 4.30pm.

My day starts at 8am when i leave my house and ends at 4.30 when i get home (or normally go straight to the gym first)
Travelling is included in the job so if it takes an hour to reach site then i make sure i leave an hour early to be home in time.

I walk!

Home to Ferry - 20mins - 1.2m
Ferry to My office - 5mins - It docks just outside my office - 0.5m
My office to Head office - 10mins - 0.49m, I do this walk several times a day most days.

So in total I could be walking 4-5 miles by foot on an average work day, or more if I have to visit another site!

The first month or two were quite harsh as I couldn't walk properly from aching legs :eek: Now I don't know where the 1.2 miles go :D

Live around Portsmouth, work in Gosport or live around Gosport, work in Portsmouth?

My commute is about 9 miles each way. 15 minutes on a good day, 25 minutes when I leave late
