Only once come close to that on a bike. An hour later than I should have been, misjudged the distance, was on my own, young and naive, it got dark...and I was unfit and literally had to push my bike up anything more than flat. The last 5 miles on a B road in the dark without lights hurt really bad.
I've had many more times that I've been physically far worse, but that's been in the hills in Scotland in winter....some Epic adventures.
