, well they made it 60 miles... but only managed 25 out of 27 libraries before the clock struck 8.
I hope he doesn't consider himself as a failure for only making it 60 miles....

Assuming he really needed to start at 1 and finish at 12, that seems a pretty reasonable route to me. Optimal? Hard for say.
Also, from Sam's perspective, it wasn't N=12. That's just the 'time points' that the paper chose for the pretty graphic. It was really N=27. Knowing the locations of the missing 15 library branches might adjust your view of shortest path choices.
