Well I have been working on my fitness lately, today I ran 4km (4 000m) at once. :thumbup:

So I was just wondering what is the furtherest you've ran without stopping?

Nice! :thumbup:

3km. But I'm also starting to work on fitness. I went from being able to do 0 push ups to 20 in just a couple of months! Ask me again in a few months :thumbup::tongue:

I don't run. :hmpf_bad:

I see stopping is allowed, but stoping is not? :look:

I'm wondering if we're allowed to stoop while ranning running. :laugh:

I Ran (So Far Away) ~ A Flock of Seagulls

I walked along the avenue.

I never thought I'd meet a girl like you;

Meet a girl like you.

With auburn hair and tawny eyes;

The kind of eyes that hypnotize me through;

Hypnotize me through.

And I ran, I ran so far away.

I just ran, I ran all night and day.

I couldn't get away.

A cloud appears above your head;

A beam of light comes shining down on you,

Shining down on you.

The cloud is moving nearer still.

Aurora Borealis comes in view;

Aurora comes in view.

And I ran, I ran so far away.

I just ran, I ran all night and day.

I couldn't get away.

Reached out a hand to touch your face;

You're slowly disappearing from my view;

Disappearing from my view.

Reached out a hand to try again;

I'm floating in a beam of light with you;

A beam of light with you.

And I ran, I ran so far away.

I just ran, I ran all night and day.

I couldn't get away.

I have run without completely stoping stopping but with a hell-o-lot of stooping for a cross country that was 5km. I thought I was going to die. Seriously! Needless to say. I don't run any further than Cutlass_Amelie is ahead of me now.

I drive a car, so no need for running.

I work at a gassation, so I get plenty of movement ... towards the coffemachine, outside for a smoke.. back to the counter...

I have never been a runner. I have friends that have ran marathons and they tell me that running gives them a really great high. I have done some minimal running and incorporated it in with my walking but its been a long time since I've done that. The Athenian soldier who ran the first supposed Marathon died upon arrival. I can take a hint.

Ran the Stockholm Marathonyesterday, had to stop and drink some, and in the end walk a bit becuase of cramp :cry_sad: . Otherwise a marathon would be my longest without stopping, just slowing down to drink. Not that fast of a runner though, Morten should be the Eurobricks Marathon Champion :thumbup: !

A couple of months? do you mean weeks or days?

I see stopping is allowed, but stoping is not?

Sorry, my "P" doesn't quite work. Could you please fix it?

Ok I get the point :hmpf::grin::tongue:

It does, it also gives you a sense of accomplishment. I only got time to jog on Sunday's so I do it once every week (I still do other physical activities like rugby and b-ball)

I used to be a sprinter when I was younger until I buggered my left knee up (I started running but my knee didn't :grin: ). I can only do about a mile or so now before it really hurts. I concentrate more on other exercise now - mostly cycling with some step, press ups (at least 50 a day) and a manual physical day job thrown into the mix.

Oh yeah, and of course I exercise my fingers an awful lot putting small pieces of plastic together to make shapes and models...... :tongue:

I use to run about 10 km now and then (haven't been so strict on it) but the longest would be 14 km cross-country running 6 years ago. I might have ran further in some orienteering competitions but it's hard to know exactly how far then :tongue:

Ran the Stockholm Marathonyesterday,

Wow, well done CopMike!

I'm not that well trained so I could ran a marathon right now but I've been thinking of trying Göteborgs-varvet (21 km). But it's been to far away to go to :cry_sad:

I used to run all of the time, I was able to do 7.2 miles is 45 minutes and 2 miles in 11.30. As for my longest run that would have been 12 miles in around 2hrs .30 min. But my knees started to give out on me and so I have taken a break for about a year. Now I don't know how far I could run.
