A math question for y'all

Riddle me this:

If Timmy runs 100 miles, then runs 200 more, then ran 24601.461 more miles, where does Timmy end up?

(Assume Timmy resides in a particularly urban location, somewhere in the Philippines.)
The total distance is equivalent to Earth's circumference, so I think I see where you're going with that.
On the same island where he started unless Timmy can run on water.

The land is not flat, so the total length would be much more than the circumference of the earth. Hes running, not flying.

TBH, I see other potential problems here.
