How much walking are you planning on? What bag have you got?

I'm going to do at least 12 miles.
I did that in about 12 hours last time to Scafel Pike and back, with just a couple of litres of water, my dinner and a few other bits and bobs.
I've got the whole of Cumbria on my phone and the whole of Great Langdale in satellite imagery so I might end up doing a lot more than that, and doing as many of the Langdale Pikes as I can.
I'm torn between really taking my time and taking it easy, and doing as much as I can.
I've got up to a month so I'll see how it goes.
I can make it a much more relaxing back packing trip, or get bored sitting around and end up wrecking myself.
Oh and my pack is 65litres.
