    How many miles have you ever walked in a day?

    I did this walk when I was at school (2 years running!) for charity, have just found the website

    http://www.keswick2barrow.co.uk/home.asp

    It was quite painful towards the end...

    (40+miles btw)

    Just wondering if anyone else has walked further?

    I've walked a little over 30 miles in one day, but including three peaks over 4000ft. (I've actually climbed everything in the british isles over 4000ft )
