Time and distance are one and the same measurement, they are
interchangable.
Its just a matter of convenience when to choose a 'time' or 'distance'
unit.
e.g. 1 second <==> 3.00x10^8 meters
1 minute <==> 1.80x10^10 meters
1 hour <==> 1.08x10^12 meters
1 day <==> 2.59x10^13 meters
e.g. 1 meter <==> 3.33x10^-9 sec
1 kilometer <==> 3.33x10^-6 sec
