How long did that take?
When I was homeless I often walked long distances but tried to limit it at 40 miles a day which is still a long day of walking on mostly road/pavement surfaces and was sustainable over multiple days
I don't think I ever walked as much as 50 miles on a single day let alone 60+
Velocio-
Just googled it - was a mere 55 miles (has got longer in my head as years went by...). IIRC we started in the evening and I finished late morning so maybe 16 hours or so?
I also remember that i was the only one that turned up in running shoes - everyone else had walking boots on which was a huge mistake as it was on pavement and road!

Yeah - I did it with a group and was the only one to get round. 65-70 miles or something? I remember not being able to walk for days after
