The 45-Minute Mile: one mile, forty-five minutes, all of it on I-95.
G. Washington's Commute. One mile from Stafford to Exit 130. Forty-five minutes. The odyssey begins.
MILE 1 · THE START · 5:00 PM
Left home in Stafford. One mile to the exit. The odyssey begins.
MILE 1 · PROGRESS? · 5:18 PM
Twenty minutes. Fifty yards moved. This is not a commute — it's a scenic stillness tour.
MILE 1 · THE MERGE · 5:35 PM
The crucial Fredericksburg Merge. Where dreams are delayed and civility is abandoned. Time stands still.
Forty-five minutes. She sighs in relief. The finish line was always there.
