Absolutely! The 'parading up Watling Street' notion belongs entirely to the Webster scenario of a battle in the Midlands. It is not necessary otherwise.
I always thought that was the point of your constant ribbing - nobody really supports it (except you with your '80 miles in 2 days' - ha!)
EDIT - I was referring to days' travel at wagon speed - 8-12 miles per day seems the best estimate, from various historical sources.
