It varies a lot depending on the order you get; much easier to work from the edges in than start with, for example, Iowa or Missouri.

94%, 11 miles, 354 sec after a couple of tries.

Have you tried the one where you write down all the state names in five minutes? Everyone gets 43-46 and can't name the last ones, even though you know them.

90% 19 miles 172 seconds

I got Nebraska first then Colorado second. I mean, come on. Then it actually docked me for being off by "9 miles" on Florida. Really?

kes - I'm pretty sure I can do that one... there's an old parlor trick I had to learn about naming all the states, in alphabetical order, in one breath. Stupid exercise for singing lessons.
