I hope this person turned around for half the time or they will have overworked the outer leg more than the inner one.

Assuming a diameter of 50 m at the inside portion, means a roundabout perimeter of 3.14*50 ~=160 m.

36miles is 57 600 m. That means he run around 57 600/160 = 360 times until he finally found the exit!

How is this even possible

I can run one mile at 10 mins and I’ve been running once a week for like 3 months

Running capacity and speed increase was very non-linear for me. It was like day 1: running is impossible, I choose obesity. Day 14: wow thats the furthest I've ever run! Day 60: I guess that was the farthest Ill ever run. Day 180: maybe not. Day 400: I just dont want to run anymore. Day 500: I can run as far as I need to if I hate myself enough and crave agony.

I went from "haha I can relate to this" to "oh now I'm sad" so fast

Keep it up! You will make progress of you are consistent and push your self a little.

I mean, doing something a dozen times doesn't make you that good at it. Even in OP's post, 9:45/ mile is average.

Looks quite doable to find that location.

Yep, you can query open street map for a roundabout involving vine st in Canada.

Ok, and? What would be the benefit of that knowledge?
