Country Mile

When walking the mile it can seem long and uneventful due to there being a lack of landmarks and people along the road to talk to or see. Thus it seems to take forever because it's a stretch of monotonous scenery.

Country Mile

A country mile is the longest distance someone is willing to walk.

This saying originated in the Australian outback, where until the late 1970s cars were few and the distance between one town and the next was several, or possibly hundreds of miles away. If you didn't have a car, or even a horse, you'd have to walk to wherever you wanted to go.
