Are you starting your DONE3 in US? If so you are limited to 4 segments and 2 stopovers in NA. Ofcourse if you are not starting in NA, then you have 6 segments and no stopover limit.

I'm starting my AONE3 tomorrow (well apart from the BKK-HKG already did a few weeks ago). HKG-SFO (stopover) - ORD-ANC (s/o) - DFW-LAX-MIA (s/o) - JFK-LHR and beyond... There may be more efficient ways of using the sectors, but that suits my timetable nicely...

If you are purely after maximum miles flown, and are doing it summer, then how about:
LGW-DFW-ANC-DFW-ANC-DFW-SFO-JFK-HKG = 29,065 miles.
Or better if you can start in FRA instead of LGW for 29,437 miles flown. But it might hit the right places you want to go!
