HTFU time.
Longest distance in a single day: 100 miles.

Longest distance solo: 1000 miles over 3 weeks from Sioux Falls, SD to St Louis, MO. I was also carrying everything that I needed to live.

Longest distance in the most remote location: 350 miles in a week in central Colorado...on a mountain bike...over the mountains...with a full touring load.

As for issues, you just deal.
