No idea. Just because Sara runs 4.5 miles per hour doesn't mean that you run at that same speed. If you know the speed that you achieve when you run, then you can calculate the distance you run in a given amount of time. But knowing that a Maserati can sustain 160 mph on the Autobahn doesn't tell me anything about how far a Volkwagen can go in an hour on the I405 at rush hour.
