Just for grins, I've done a little checking on Google maps to get a feel for how far I am walking as I run around the city. Starting with the standard stuff, going to the office and back 4 days a week, I find that walking to and from the tube station at each end gets me 1.6 mi/day. This works out to just of 83 mi for the semester.
There there is the obligatory outing each day. Some require significant walking and some don't so let's say this is another 1.5 mi/day for those 4 days each week. This works out to be about 66 mi for the semester.
This gets me to a little shy of 150 miles. This is before I start doing the other things I want to do like Cambridge and Canterbury. Extra trips to Greenwich are not in there. The out-of-town trips to Oxford, Edinburgh, and Paris are omitted. Our spring break trip and our travel after the semester.
I'd say it is pretty easy that I'll top 300 miles this semester. Being the FMIR in London is certainly good exercise!
