Question Distance around World Showcase Lagoon?

Does anyone know the distance around World Showcase Lagoon? A friend of ours challenged me to find out. I tried looking it up but I have gotten various answers from 1.2 miles to 2 miles. The passporter Epcot map says it should take me 29 min. to walk around it, but I can't rememeber what speed that is assuming I am walking. Thanks for the help!

Officially, I believe it's 1.1 miles (it is definitely not 2 miles!) It takes me about 20 minutes to walk it, I do walk at nearly exactly 3mph normally.

I did a timed walk for my site, also including photos: MouseSteps - Epcot/MGM Studios

Sometime I'll actually time it to different areas and get some additional photos up. My timed walk that day was 21 minutes. It depends on how crowded it is too. If there are a lot of guests, you aren't going to easily get a 3mph pace in. If it's empty, then you can go faster. (I have walked WS for exercise many, many, many times - hundreds? - as I have the Boardwalk, Fort Wilderness, etc. - some of my favorite places on Dis property!) 29 minutes would be a very slow pace.

Oh, thanks! I hope it did help. There are a lot of "20 minute walks" around property, it's amazing how many places you can find that are about a mile. From Epcot to MGM, the WS lagoon walkaround, the FW parking lot to the Settlement, and the Settlement to the WL...all in the 1 mile range. WS seems shorter than Epcot to MGM, but they are very similar.

That is more than you wanted to know!
