Around 25 miles a bunch of times when I was a kid. Now I stay under 12 so that my feet and knee do not ruin the next couple of days.

Seek, and you shall find.
Low and slow.....12.5 miles, enjoyed the pace, scenery, conversation with my son
and at times thought my chest would explode.......can't wait to do it again.
16.8 miles from RPH Shelter to Telephone Pioneers Shelter.... not much by many standards but it was a big one for me
All day is the longest I've hiked.
Did 29 on the last day of a month-long hike. Felt great afterwards. Was dead the next day.

See one cat did 60 clicks. What limits me these days is common sence, Sure I can still do 40 or 50 clicks, but what for? So I have to figure out how to fix my toes and trick knee. Always found whe I was young the distance had to do with water.
62.2. Carter Notch Hut to Hall Mt. Lean-to with a 60 pound pack.
Then I went dancing.

Robert Rogers and the Rangers did 35 clicks slept a couple hours and theb attacked. They killed like 25. Then humped out to camp 4 on the Ct. River, I always get confused if Major Rogers is a Marine or a paratrooper? Or just a straight leg 11Bush
One of my worst days of hiking was also my longest. 26 miles. After that I have only hiked 20+ miles out of neccesity. Trying to get to the post office mostly.
Anybody meet Dwayne from Florida in 2010? He hiked from Whitecap Mountain to Katahdin Stream campground in one day. Something like 71 miles, then got mad that the rangers wouldn't let him summit that day.
45 Miles, Cosby knob shelter in GSNP to Hot Springs. It took 24 hrs I had torn some legiments in my ankle and my wife and I made the rush on Hot springs before the swelling got to bad (which it did). That ended our thruhike this year, but we will be back this coming year.
