    Ballinlough rd is a long road so it would depend which end. The City end would take 20 to 30mins give or take.

    Thanks. Destination would be the Church of Our Lady of Lourdes.

    Google maps says 3.2 km - 41 minutes. That's a very leisurely pace imo.

    Yeah, very leisurely. I often walk from work (Douglas village) to the city centre (near bus station) via a route right past that church, and the full journey takes me 50 mins at most. The church is about half-way.

    Tell Google Maps you're walking and it will show you a very direct route via Victoria Ave which is only 2.0km long. It estimates 26 minutes which might be true if you have to use a zimmerframe.
