Walking time from Yacht Club to HS and Epcot?

Just curious what to expect regarding how much time it actually takes to walk to those two parks from YC. We are 2 fit adults and 3 kids, ages 10 to 14, who will walk quickly when motivated, will be slower when tired...

YC to DHS is about a 15 minute walk. My husband and I like to walk and the kids like to take the boat. We have beaten the boat every time! YC to the International Gateway (back entrance) of Epcot is about 8 minutes. Keep in mind that you will have to add another 8 minutes or so to that to get to FutureWorld. YC is a great location, have fun!

It really depends on your walking rate and where your room is located at YC. There is a side that is a tad closer to Epcot and a side that is a tad closer to HS. My son and I (he's an adult) usually take about 20 min. to walk from HS to Epcot at a reasonable pace. Well, it's reasonable for him, I sometimes have to remind him Mama is height challenged and my little legs don't stretch far. I've done the walk from Dolphin to Mexico in 10 min. but that was almost running because I was going to be late for a F&W meal.

I walk relatively slowly compared to most people, despite being moderately fit, and I can still get from YC to HS in 20 min max. And that's with stopping multiple times to remind DS (5) to catch up, not climb on walls, etc. etc. If we walk with purpose and DS is in a stroller, we can cut it down to 15 min or less. Epcot is closer but even with our meandering pace we can get to the IG in 10 min at the most.
