Walk to school?

[Storm Cadet]

Watch this short clip about rising fuel costs of busing kids to school. Cities and towns are looking at cutting out bus routes...maybe this will help with childhood obesity http://www.cnbc.com/id/15840232?video=777238858&play=1

How far did you walk to junior or senior high school when you were young? I Mapquested it today and:

In junior high I had to walk 1.35 miles each way. In high school I was 2.76 each way so I had to bus.
