Pace	Minute	Hour	Day	Week	Effect
Travel according to PHB (pg-181)
Fast	400 feet	4 miles	30 miles	210 miles	-5 penalty to Passive Perception
Normal	300 feet	3 miles	25 miles*	175 miles*	-
Slow	200 feet	2 miles	20 miles*	126 miles	Able to use Stealth
This table assumes 8 hours of travel per day, as per PHB. Difficult terrain halves speed.
* Added one mile per day for easier scaling with map

According to the PHB:

It would take 41.6 days to travel 1000 miles at a normal pace.
It would take 4.16 days to travel 100 miles at a normal pace.

By adding 1 mile to the daily travel time this gets simplified to:

It would take 40 days to travel 1000 miles at a normal pace.
It would take 4 days to travel 100 miles at a normal pace.
