Hiked from the summit of Haleakala (10k ft elevation) down the Kaupo Gap to sea-level over a 24 hr period. I believe it's around 17 miles. Packed in tent and spent the night in the crater of the volcano. Ridiculous experience. Did it twice, actually.

Gorges du Tarn from Florac to Millau (France) and then the Midi Canal from Toulouse to Agde. Total distance 307km (192 miles) in 14 days. Plus two days in Toulouse to recover from the blisters and Cassoulet-induced gout...

Two years ago it was the Tsitsikamma Otter Trail in South Africa. It was only 45km (28 miles) total, but the climbing up and down the sea cliffs made for the toughest but most beautiful trail I have done. If you add up all the climbing on just Day Four, it is the equivalent of climbing the Empire State Building. With pack on rock scrabble trails. The oxygen deprevation was really bad until Abraham Lincoln came along and helped me with my pack.

I once hiked about 15 miles in one night after hitting the ditch on a camping trip.
Does that count?

I did the Nijmegen while stationed in Germany. 40km a day for four days with a ruck. That shite sucked balls.

Get the audiobook AWOL on the Appalachian Trail. It's extremely soothing to listen to.

16 miles....Vicksburg National Military Park. Great experience.

13 days is short of two weeks. Have you never gone on a two week vacation?
Eta: I could see how a longer hike would make this conversation necessary.
I'm talking about something like the Appalachian Trail or Pacific Crest Trail.
