Mike Shacklock did the following: 25 miles: 55:53 26.83 mph I did a regression of log distance versus log time on these data, and ln distance/miles = 3.3231 + 0.90097 * ln time/hours (note: the semilog slope fitting the 25-100 miles would be less ... Thus, if I predict his 24 hour and 6-minute distances, I get: 6 minutes: 3.49 miles The model predicts if you increase the duration of the exercise by a So, for example, if you can ride 2.00 miles in 6 minutes (20 mph), then (2 miles) * 240^(0.9) = 278 miles If instead you can go 20 miles in 1 hour, for 24 hours you get: (20 miles) * 24^(0.9) = 349 miles Of course, your mileage may vary....
