Yes, that would be reasonable. Now, I spoke with a couple of ladies who were near the front of the march. They said that they arrived at the mall at appx. 10:30 am. That would put the speed for them at about 2 mph. However, people further back took more like an hour to get there which is about 1 mph.
One phenomenon that I have never experienced with such power, was a wave of cheering rushing from a long distance behind me up to and past me. It was actually frightening with its noise level and speed. You actually could feel it as well as hear it. Was really incredible. I have never felt or heard anything like it at professional football or basketball games.

Me, too!! THAT was powerful! I live near Penn State and always enjoy the, "We Are..." followed by, "Penn State!" that breaks out spontaneously and is ALWAYS answered. That's the closest I've ever come to something like this. I was laughing and calling it an enthusiasm wave.
