horace, led 200 kikori woodcutters and kicked but against 3 times that many trained warriors, he fought some of the best warriors in the world and won. i think that many people are really underrating horace. A league is the distance most people could walk in a day. 40 leagues in 1 day on foot is absolutely insane, most people would collapse of fatigue before they hit 2.

it was 40 leagues in 3 days not 40 in 1.
