Defining "a runner" as someone who ran two times per week for at least 75% of weeks of the year, they get:
- Japanese runners run the furthest. 41.5 km per week, nearly a marathon equivalent!
- UK runners average 31.1 km
- UK non-runners average 7.2 km
- South African runners average the longest record run, at 42.5 km
- UK runners average 30.7 km
- UK non-running Garmin users do 15.3 km
- Global average run pace is 5:39
- UK does 5:50, according to the article. Though it also says the UK does better than the global average, so something may be wrong with their reporting
- Ireland: 5:24
