Yes, that's OK. In informal speaking, you could also say other things, eg

'Will you be able to go that long (without ***)?'

It's okay - usually you persevere by continuing to try in the face of adversity, but I suppose your example could qualify.

EDIT Sorry - I got distracted and forgot to hit post.
