good question...
Jim has stated that professional travelers, merchants and the like, can travel about 200 miles a day.
And thats without exhausting themselves.
I think for a complete legion, you would need to trim it down a bit, large groups are difficult to koordinate.
And then see what a force march would let them travel. maybe something around 500 miles on a normal travel day.
But thats all speculation, since i have no idea how much faster force marching is compared to normal marching.

Just to note something down i saw while rereading AF before i forget it again: Mountains west of the Capital, mentioned during the party at Kalares townhouse.

That's something that bugs me a little with the maps. It's the Calderon Valley, so it should have mountains on almost every side of it, not the ocean to the south that gets shown.

It has mountains on the north and south, the isthmus on the west and the Marat plains on the east.
The Calderon valley is "past" the isthmus to Marat lands. The isthmus itself is not the Calderon Valley.

Sorry, I haven't figured that out yet.
