None. It's still 26 miles.

A Relativistic Point of View:

If Einstein is correct, then there is neither space nore time, but space-time. So how many minutes is 26 miles should have an answer... right? But it still seems to us mortals that there is crucial information not given in the question. Are we talking about average time to complete a marathon? Are we driving a car at a certain rate of speed? A hike? Air or train travel?

I don't feel like doing the calculations, but from a very whacky point of view, one might say that the number of minutes in 26 miles is the length of time that light in a vacuum needs to travel 26 miles. It will be a very tiny number. But I do like the idea in general.
