To top it off, the gate agents absolutely will not wait for you under any circumstances. If you're not onboard when they are ready to shut that door, you are S.O.L. They could see you running and waving your hands and they'd still shut it in your face.
Atlanta is just as big but the train system is better so your maximum jog is 20 gates long (1/2 of one concourse).
MSP is not horrendous. All one has too do is look at a map and find the fastest way from Point A to Point B. AT MSP this will generally fall into 3 categories. One, simply walking from gate to gate ie.. G gates to F gates. Second, take the skywalk connector over to the C concourse and A/B regional. Or if you are near the Northstar Crossing, hope the train that takes you down to the A/B platform. This is one of the simplest, nicest airports to travel through. ATL is a dive.
