The most direct but most dangerous route is just a little over six miles. The more safe but slightly hilly route is a little over 8 miles.

I would have to leave the house at 5:30 in the morning so I'm hoping that I don't have a traffic issue on the way to work in the morning and can take the shorter flatter route. On the way home I'll let traffic dictate which way I go, likely trying to stay on neighborhood roads instead of the main roads.
