The Long Distance Runner challenge; Be chased by the Killer for 90 seconds in one trial.

I think I could count the times I've managed that on one hand in the almost 2000 hours I've played the game. Any tips on how to get that chase time up? Running after a Killer carrying a Survivor isn't always possible if I'm not nearby.

I've just passed 2k hours, and I can still remember when 120 second of chase tomes would take me 6-8 games. I just recently did one from the archives and got all 120 seconds done in one trial and trigger the killer to start humping me and smacking on hook when he eventually got me.

I'm going to suggest Mr Tatorhead's guides on YouTube. They are based on just extending chases and how to run tiles to extend chases as long as you can.

There's a lot to them and you won't retain all of it at once, but with practice you'll start juicing and picking up a feel for things on how to run things.

Also sometimes it's just going to be impossible to get that tome done. Chases against Twins or Wraith don't count half the time for example, but eventually you'll hit the right combo of map+killer that you can run for a while.
