## Halfway there
It's not trivial to determine you're halfway on your journey when you don't know exactly how far you're traveling. That's why we defined we would be halfway there when passing 96.207 degrees west (for the first time). This seemingly random value was found by taking the average of the longitudes of New York and Los Angeles (the two red markers on the map). The latitude is of no concern since our route isn't a straight line from NY to LA (we would probably need a few more BHP and 4WD for such a route).
