Sport above all (Posted on 2021-02-22) Difficulty: 2 of 5
On my jogging days I start at 6:00 sharp and follow a paved road, heading strictly North.
At some point this same-level road turns West, but I go on on a path heading North going uphill till I reach an antenna site located on top of the hill.
I rest there for 10 minutes exactly then return following the same route in opposite direction. I arrive home at 08:10.

My average speeds are: on the paved road 6 mph, uphill 4.8 and downhill 8,

What is the distance between my home and the point of return?
