I'll unravel a bit...
You need to work out 'where it all stagnates' (and keep it brief!),
Then put that in front of 'a little more than a mile', to come up with the second part of the answer. The whole thing sounds like an airfield.
The two attempts above were not barking up the right tree...
Good luck!
