I don't know how you can run for more than 4 hours.
As someone whose longest ever run was 4 hours I'm not best placed to comment but hopefully it's a case of slow down, walk every now and again to let muscles relax/recover a bit, eat plenty, stay hydrated, train a shit load, ignore your body telling you you're an idiot and you can go for longer!
I don't know how you can run for more than 4 hours. I had a decent 2hrs 40 yesterday and was wiped out.
Today I learnt that I will never be a proper fell runner. I got halfway along Striding Edge, visibility diminished, had an attack of the heeby jeebies and turned back. Cue much self-loathing.
