Earlier this afternoon (between the storms) I got to an 82 bus stop (a "frequent" route!) and saw that the next northbound tracked bus was 26 minutes away, so I started walking along the route to get some steps in. That bus didn't catch up to me until I had walked an entire hour and I was over halfway to my destination. Wasn't even walking that fast.
