How to cut your commute in half

I already knew this, of course, but decided to try it out this morning. I ran to the station, in a leisurely pace. Bit of a pain running with a ruck sack, and quite hard to motivate yourself doing exercise at the crack of dawn, but I essentially halved my time, compared with the bus. Luckily, it wasn't raining. I'll probably stick to the bus those quintessentially British days.
