A one-mile walk

Hi,

In how many ways can you say ''a one-mile walk'' ?
For example if I used the word 'hour' instead of 'mile' I could say it in a couple of different ways:
''An hour's walk''
''A walk for one hour''

Thanks

MustAsk In how many ways can you say a one-mile walk ? No doubt the modes of measurement are multitudinous if you consider anything other than 'mile'. MustAsk For example if I used the word 'hour' instead of 'mile' I could say it in a couple of different ways:''An hour's walk'' A walk for one hour With no further context, I find only 'an hour's walk' a natural utterance.
