 How long does an average basketball game take?  We also have to take into consideration the movement while clock is not running.   I don't think basketball officials go 5 miles in a game but would not have a problem with 3.5 to 4 miles a game.  Several guys in our association did the pedometer thing and 3 did the math angle.   The final average came to 3.767 miles per game.  We had a great time with this at over fermented malt beverages following the meeting.
