Alternate answer: They are going in circles, the r of one being two times of the other.
OK teaser, but technically they didn't actually walk 4 and 2 miles if they were on treadmills.
didn't get the hint. Nice teaser, otherwise.
EASY!!!

I like it.

I like it.
I thought they were walking in a huge circle, with the one being on the inner side...
