Someone (alright, [livejournal.com profile] active_apathy) posted a poll about reading speed yesterday, with a link to a Google search for reading speed tests. I took this test.

759 words per minute, 91% (10/11) comprehension.

I should run more tests, of course, but this does make me happy. The average is about 200 wpm.

(Updates on other stuff – i.e. Scout summer camp, 50 mile hike – later.)

Edit: Tests number 2 and number 3 complete. #2 says "between 650 and 700". #3 was inconclusive, as it only measured up to 489. Perhaps the best Test #4 would be an on-paper one.
