well lets see............

from Bradenton, FL to Rochester Hills MI, is about 1300 Miles (says MapQuest), & the average walking speed for women is ~ 3.0 MPH, & for men its about 3.5 MPH.

So if a woman was to walk non stop it would take approx 433 Hours or just over 18 days.

If it was a man it would take 371 hours or about 15.5 Days.

I would assume that this "person" would want to stop for food & sleep @ night, which would likely take up 12 hours for both, which would mean you would have to double those times.

However, if you were to just tie that person to your bumper & drive 70 MPH, it would only take about 18.5 hours to get "him" back home.
