This is it, your opportunity to brag about that loooong hike, grueling ride that left you sore for days, or 6 hour rowing activity that made your shoulders scream. What has your longest activity been?

Mine was cycling and it was this year
145km with 1770m of climb. Took 6 hours

Congrats Bryan! How did you feel afterwards? What's the next milestone going to be? 100 miles/160km?

I felt fine afterwards, the cramp on a big hill in the middle wasn’t great, but more energy gels fixed it.
100 miles is a definite target, maybe next year.

Ah yes, the trusty gels can ameliorate almost any issue on the road. I once had a salted watermelon one that didn't go down very smoothly, definitely not my favorite flavor, haha.
We'll be rooting for you on the 100 mile ride! 💪

I'm interested to see some of these long activities!
A quick tip - if you're wondering how to find your longest activity on Strava, here are the steps:
As for me, my longest activity was a bike ride I did back in 2018 with 2 friends. We rode from Midtown Manhattan out to Piermont and back, about 50 miles (80 kilometers) roundtrip. NYC area cyclists will recognize this as being a classic cycling route in the area. Most memorable for me were the views of the city skyline from the George Washington Bridge, and the taste of a free chocolate chip cookie I got at a Festival that was going on in front of my building when I arrived home. Food tastes extra good when you've just burned a ton of calories!
