How long did your longest aware dream last?

@ 1up
Purposefully, one time, but that was just an hour, so it might have just been a coincidence.
Around 2 or 3 hours, if I remember correctly. I have full details written down in one of my dream journals. Might be around in Volume II if I have to go find it. :S
I just started Volume IV, so it was a decent amount of time ago. Maybe around the time I was 13? So about 3-4 years ago.
All I know is that I never used time dilation. I only used the "rubbing hands together" method and such to stay in my dream as long as possible.

I'll have to do some serious studying on the subject. It's hard right now since it's difficult to get to sleep and stay asleep. That wont last much longer, so maybe I can do some experiments in a few weeks .
