    Half Marathon... well I actually did 14.2 when training for my second half, I had a little extra that one day. :smiley:

    I wish I had the desire to run a whole one, if I was a bit younger I might could be talked into it.

    3 miles and I wouldn't classify myself as a runner at all. Just do it periodically for a change in routine.

    I ran the US Air Force Half Marathon many years ago. I have no desire to do a full, I can't even imagine running for over 4 hours. I like 5k races. I can run many each year and it doesn't take all my time to train.

    15 miles is what I normally train up to for half marathon distance.

    Just started training for my first ever full.

    I don't know if my body will let me but I'm going to try.

    13.1. I'm limited more by time/boredom than physical endurance. Two hours seems to be my limit and even that requires a race environment. When running on my own 90 minutes tends to be the most I can do before getting too bored to continue.

    What is the furthest distance you have ever run without stopping?

    One day when i was in the army, the commander had a wild hair up his *kitten* for some reason and made us run 10 miles that morning. We only ever ran 4 or 6 miles in that unit, and about 2 thirds of the soldiers did not make that distance. I was one of the ones who made it (barely), so 10 miles is the furthest i have ever run non stop.

    I recently took up running (i guess close to a year now), and have worked my way up to 5 miles so far.

    I am in awe of people that run ultra marathons, and even marathons & half marathons.

    What is the longest distance you have ever run?

    Without stopping (walk intervals were always part of the plan), 26.2miles
    Without walking 13.1miles

    7 miles, after I got my second wind, I didn't wan't to stop. (This was years ago, before I gained this weight).

    I've run marathons, but I'm not sure how to count those since you specify "without stopping" and I stop at water stations (I can't drink and run at the same time so I have to walk briefly).

    What's chasing me?... never mind I still wouldn't run. I can walk a lot though.

    16 miles is the farthest I’ve run so far.

    I enjoy 15k’s and half’s for the most part although it would be cool to train for a full at some point.

    10k (so just over 6 miles). My aim for 2019 is to double that!

    My sister and I have run 27 miles, 50/50 both directions, at least once a month in the early mornings. It's less taxing during colder months and with less traffic. We need to work following am runs, so running to exhaustion/failure isn't the aim.
