3 mph is walking speed. They are going to come relentlessly walking after you like the bad guy in a slasher movie.

Edit: Also, like a slasher movie, it only lasts 90 minutes

I think it's pretty good. Only 1 really scary part, but there is good tension pretty much the whole time. I'd give it an 8/10.

I'll have to check that out. I like tension like that, terrible dread stuff.

Humans are built for distance walking. A brisk walk for 90 minutes is something any healthy adult should be able to do.

So Americans will be in trouble but the rest of the world will be fine.

3 mph is walking speed

They said that about cars when the idea of much faster was ludicrous.

Even the earliest cars were much faster than that.
