Here's your question.
Why the hell does he run back and then just stop?
My algebra 2 class had a hell of a time coming up with scenarios for this last year, I wanted to see if anyone here had something interesting to say about it.
 
I'm more scared that it takes him 10 and a half hour to get home.
 
Because he arrived at his destination?
His house is 12 miles away from his friend's house. He stops 6 miles away, runs back 1.5 miles, then just...stops.
 
3 hours to go a mile and a half... probably walked to his ho's house with some 7/11, Mcdonals, and a smoke break, then got some kinky sex, then went to his other bitches house, did the same, then back to ho #1 for some more sex and he just said fuck it and passed out.

Kids a player, not gonna lie... It takes quite some athelticism to try to run 12 miles, so im sure hes got some girls after him.
 
Ok, I see. I think your question was cut off of your graphic there.

First he runs 3 miles in 3 hours.
Then he runs 0 miles in 2 hours.
Then he runs 3 miles in 2 hours.
Then he runs 0 miles in 3 hours.
Then he runs -3 miles in .5 hours.
Then he runs 0 miles in 4.5 hours.

I'm guessing you want us to tell the story as to why he ran the way he did, so...

First he runs 3 miles in 3 hours.

3 miles in 3 hours is more of a stroll. I could do that pace without breaking a sweat. I'd say he met a girl outside his friends house and is trying to get a shot at her wet wet.

Then he runs 0 miles in 2 hours.

I would imagine this is where she lives. He succeeded in getting some stinky on his dinky.

Then he runs 3 miles in 2 hours.

Still in no hurry. He's walking, in a good mood cause he just got laid.

Then he runs 0 miles in 3 hours.

He ran into an old friend he hasn't seen in a while, bullshit for a bit, smoked a cigarette, then told him about his encounter earlier with the girl when he found out...

Then he runs -3 miles in .5 hours.

She is his girlfriend and he is a marine that has been looking forward to coming home to his girl for his whole tour of duty. He was going to suprise her today by just showing up, but instead, he has to chase this little fucker down the street 3 miles. After about 30 minutes, he catches him and hits him in the face till it stops being funny.

Then he runs 0 miles in 4.5 hours.

Laying in the gutter, bleeding.

Um that isnt fast, I used to walk home from college and that took me an hour to do 5 miles, i thought that was slow.
