Several times, I actually got up and walked to school. 10 miles of walking takes about 2.5 hours at a decent pace. At 5 AM, you're walking at a decent pace in PA's north east country. Or you're cold. Either way.
I used to ride 6 miles to school, and it was faster than taking the bus.

First on-Last off bus took an hour, riding only about 20 min.
