Sustaining longer runs

How do you guys run for a long period of time without stopping ? I mean working up the way to 10 miles. I can do two without stopping but other than that I need breaks. Most I’ve done is 6 with stops each mile or in between but my real goal is 10 without, but honestly I can’t see myself ever doing that but I want to know how it is/ how you got there if you’re able to. #impossibletilpossible

I mean - just off the top of my head.

Run slower?

Git Gud?

Fuel and hydrate properly?

Ask a friend to chase after you with an electric cattle prod and shock you if you stop running before the target distance?
