That's an interesting issue to raise (about the distance covered in migration).
In a practical sense, we would need to know all sorts of things about how the
migration is done—are there wheeled vehicles or beasts of burden, how does the
migrant group eat (some types of groups would need to stop more often or for
longer periods of time).
But in a narrative sense, there is a density of action here that I think is the
reason I am not drawn to questions of verisimilitude: I don't need to believe
that real people could really do this in the way I'm
told.
