>what is the average for a horse at the walk/trot? 

It varies for my horse.

Walking towards our mountain trail:  1 mph
Walking towards home: 5 mph
Trotting towards mtn. trail: 3mph
Trotting towards home: 10mph
Trotting first 12 miles of an endurance ride: 12 mph
Cantering when another horse is in sight at an endurance ride: 65mph.

It varies with the situation.
