What is the longest distance you have walked in a day?


Four miles would be the most for me. I read that Charles Dickens would regularly walk twelve miles in a day.

Between 50 to 60 km in the military with full equipment.

I think mine would be roughly 12 miles. When my brother and I first started golfing, we both had the bug really bad and we walked 54 holes one day (and this was a fairly hilly course).

I love walking, but, since I'm getting older, I like to walk for no more than an hour now. Depending on the golf course, I don't mind walking 18 holes when I can, but I don't get to play nearly as much as I used to.

About 15 miles, when I was a teenager doing really dumb things late at night. I was out teepeeing a house with a few friends and we got caught by their dad who started chasing us from the front porch. I and another friend were on the far side of the yard, furthest from the truck, and the dad was chasing our two other friends towards the truck. My friend and I were stuck between the dad and the truck so we would have had to run by him. We jumped in the ditch to the right, but then he headed towards us so we took off in the farm field meanwhile our friends took off in the truck. The dad then ran back to the house and got in his truck to chase our friends though he never caught up with them. Meanwhile we were stuck high and dry and hiked it back to our friend's house which was a about 15 miles away so a good 4 or 5 hour walk. Crossed the freeway in the middle of the night. It's all kind of comical looking back besides the teepeeing.
