Hello again !
Yes, it’s busy little me back again.
People often ask “How fast does a hamster run on its wheel ?”.
Well I let Mummy take some video of me on my wheel last night and some of the shots she took included the meter ticking up the revolutions.
When Daddy got the video he did some calculations based on the length of the clips and the number of times my wheel went round and, roughly speaking, I was running at about 3.35 Miles per hour, or 5.39 Kilometers an hour for you metric types.
That is about equivalent to the average walking pace of a human, but my legs are much shorter than yours.
I know there are a lot of hamsters that can run even faster than that…( be careful of the volume ! )…
… but that looks dangerous
and anyway, I’m going for endurance as opposed to speed.
I wish Daddy would hurry up and get all these video clips edited and put up on YouTube for you all to see…
[ Okay, Okay... ! Can't you tell I'm busy ?
]
I’m off for a little nap now before clocking up a few more miles…
Whatever you’re going to be doing today, do it safely !
Sweetie
