I actually live only 4 mile from work. I keep upping my commute distance pre work, it's now up to 10 miles. I do however tend to stick to 6 miles back probably due to it being near midnight.

1.5 miles each way. Barely worth getting the bike out.
I used to commute 11 or 12 miles each way, so I'm not as unheroic as all that

By shortest distance my commute is 2.6 miles over a flat profile but, by choice, I actually commute 4.2 miles over an undulating route.

34 - 35 mile round trip, mainly cycle path and road, currently 5 days a week, hoping it doesn't get 2 cold over the next few months

About 4.3 miles, which isn't far compared to most people, & only has 2 hills.
It can be the grounds at work that are the most dangerous section, as there's lots of distracted pedestrians/drivers & 'blue lights' around (a local Hospital)

Average ride is about 14 minutes, dependant on traffic-lights.

Running the same route, barring a slight diversion, through a pedestrianised area, takes me an average time of 29 minutes (27:20 - 27:30 on a good day)

So, I'm not sure if I ride slow, or run fast???
