I hope and pray all goes well. When times are toughest,
people tend to exceed all expectations.
300%2F6 ft/min x 1%2F60 min/sec = 5%2F6 feet/sec
This is the same as
%285%2F6%29+%2F+1 feet/sec x 12 inches/foot = 10 inches/sec
----------------
A second is a pretty long time to go 10 inches, but the
difficulty of course is keeping it up for 6 minutes, and
I certainly hope she can do it. Take good care of yourself.
God be with you.
