Its not very far at all from Valley Forge to Philadelphia, about twenty-five miles. This was probably a two-day march for an army at that time, if the roads were dry, more if they were mud, and it could be done in one day but it would take all day and the troops would arrive at the end too tired to fight well. The British never bothered to come out of their snug, warm winter quarters in Philadelphia to attack Valley Forge, because they saw no need to. Mother Nature was keeping up a constant attack on Washington's men there, and doing a good job.
