Abstract: Let $(E,lVert.Vert)$ be a two-dimensional real normed space with unit sphere $S=xinE,lVertxVert=1$. The main result of this paper is the following: Consider an affine regular hexagon with vertex set $H=pm{v}_1,pm{v}_2,pm{v}_{3}subseteqS$ inscribed to $S$. Then we have ${\displaystyle }$min_i max_{x in S}{lVert x - v_i Vert + lVert x + v_i Vert} leq 3.${\displaystyle }$ From this result we obtain ${\displaystyle }$min_{y in S} max_{x in S}{lVert x - y Vert + lVert x + y Vert} leq 3,${\displaystyle }$ and equality if and only if $S$ is a parallelogram or an affine regular hexagon.
