Taking dogs for short/medium/long walk, or jogging, all take a long time.

It does vary by neighborhood. It's ridiculous from the Munch house in Windenberg. My sim can leave the house with all needs full and he'll be wetting himself and starving by the time he comes home, unless I intervene to cut the walk short. The Brindleton Bay walks don't seem to take quite as long, but are still longer than they should be.
