What is the longest distance you have ever run straight without stopping?
What is the longest distance you have ever run straight without stopping?
By running, do you mean faster than a 7 minute pace, or can I count jogging and walk breaks during my 38.5 miles?
If we are just counting actual running (faster than 7 minute pace) then it would be 18.6 miles.

Running as in the definition of running.
I just did a 3:13 thoner with splits of 1:37:45/1:35:45 and never once ran though I did get close with a 7:04 downhill mile. Jogging is nothing to be ashamed of.
26.2 miles. But that was in a race. In training? I have no idea. In long runs I always stop at least once. Runners seem to me to be obsessed with not stopping in a training run. I don't know why.
29 miles. Just wanted to see how far I could go in 3 and a half hours. I think running over marathon distance every now and then is healthy. You don't line up without even warming up a step do you?
24.9 miles
I've completed 4 marathons, and bonked in each of them. First time at mile 15 (newbie + 80+ degree temps), next at mile 21, then at mile 23, and then 24.9. I'll get to 26.2 sometime, hopefully, then no more
Don't know, honestly. I had a no-stops 2hr 40min training run, but it was a pretty easy pace. So my guess is somewhere between 20 and 22 miles--probably toward the shorter end of that.
...unless you count my 50km walking races. There are some who'd say that I was "running" the whole time.
50 miles
Does stopping to pee in the woods count?

Pretty sure he's just saying that the remaining distance after the bonk was a death march.
26 miles, 392 yards (didn't start right on the line, and ran all the way through the tape).
