Graph on the left
depicts the pain index reported by the participants using a McGill
Pain Questionnaire versus the total distance in miles traveled
within the testing time. The pain index on the y-axis ranges
from 0 to 30 and distance on the x-axis ranges from 0 to 32.47.
The graph shows that participants that traveled 10.68, 16.92
and 32.47 miles all reported no pain while the participant that
traveled 16.82 reported an index number of 26, the one that traveled
17.78 reported an index number of 5, the one that traveled 21.34
reported an index number of 8, and the one that traveled 29.75
reported an index number of 21. Graph on the right depicts the
pain index reported by the participants using a McGill Pain Questionnaire
versus the average speed per hour in miles per hour traveled
within the testing time. The pain index on the y-axis ranges
from 0 to 30 and speed on the x-axis ranges from 0 to 1.50. The
graph shows that participants that traveled at speeds of 0.79,
0.92 and 1.50 miles per hour all reported no pain while the participant
that traveled at 0.90 reported an index number of 5, the one
that traveled at 1.02 reported an index number of 26, the one
that traveled at 1.14 reported an index number of 8, and the
one that traveled at 1.39 reported an index number of 21.
