[@Lerouge] I don't think the distance was overestimated (underestimated might be the better term to use here) at all. I'd say it's a half-mile distance. Sprinting that in 3-6 minutes isn't really unusual. Regardless, I really liked the post. :)

That's a relief. I didn't make it seem like he was running for too long I hope, I wanted to try and find a nice medium that would fit both lengths of distance. I tried using the first post distance since Route 121 was an 8 hour walk I figured a quarter of the way would be 2 hours and guessed running distance from that. I mostly just wanted my character to not spend too much time dawdling with random wild Pokemon... I'm pretty sure Kabutops would brutally attack the first wild Pokemon we run into...

I look forward to everyone's replies!
