You didn't leave when the going got tough. Something that they thought would frighten you off, didn't .

I'm not familiar with it and Google turned up nothing. By the way, since the Brits have been on the metric system for at least 20 years, maybe there's a subtle message referencing a mile...

I agree with the others. It's that you didn't turn tail and run off like others might have done.

we still use miles, yard, feet and inches in the UK.

If you just met this person for the first time, it means the person was expecting you to be 'freaked out' by his/her appearance and is pleased that you didn't run away.
It's pretty self explanatory.

What was the context in which they said it?
