I don’t know if there is already a post for this (if so sorry mods) but are there any runners in our little community? If so what’s the longest you have run? I am kind of new to the whole running thing so my longest is only 3 miles 😢 ---

I used to run quite a bit but not as much anymore. I’m mainly a cyclist. ---

I’ve only timed myself twice. First time, I did two, hilly, miles in 11 minutes flat and second time I did one-mile around a track in 4.5 minutes. ---

27.38 miles for no good reason other than to see if I could run 26 miles. Got a bit turned around, crossed the US/Mexico border (when you could just walk across), that added the extra 1.38 miles. It took me all day and I enjoyed it so much I’ve only ran 3 mile distances and less, to this day, and hope to never, NEVER, run more than 3 miles again at a given time. I totally burned myself out on it. Now biking and skiing are something completely different! :wink: ---

I hate running but I’ve gone and signed up for a 5k in Seattle this July 😛 We’ll see how that goes ---

I’ve done many half marathons but never more than that. People say if you can do a half you can do a whole, but I’m always wiped out after a half. ---

Did you hear about the lady on the news…she was going to run half a marathon. While she was doing that, a full marathon was happening. Somewhere in the middle of the race she took a wrong turn and ended up in the full marathon group of runners. Not only could she finish the 26 miles…she won! > **[Woman wins marathon by mistake](https://ftw.usatoday.com/2013/09/marathon-mistake)** > > Meredith Fitzmaurice is the anti-Rosie Ruiz. ---

I’m not much of a long distance runner (at all, I don’t have great endurance), but I’m a pretty good sprinter. A month or so ago I won my county track league’s 100 meter championship, along with my team winning 1st in the 4x100. I definitely love running, but I guess I’d be considered a sprinter, not runner. 🙂 ---

Used to run between 5 and 10 miles a day most of the year, when I was 12 till I was 17. I was a mid distance runner. Ran the 400 and 800. 400 I could put down a high 44, too a low 45. 800 I wasn’t nationally competitive. ---
