If you want to start me, you've a long way to run.

If you want to end me, you'll need an apparent pun.

Seek my middle, and you'll find a tech holy grail,

Though its inherent dangers would make many go pale.

Come to me! You'll find science, or maybe a tourney.

I'm a trait of a trait of your very first journey.

I'm a part of the best games, as most recommend.

But for many a couple, I'm the end of the end.



What am I?

          Are you




          FAILURE?




          If you want to start me, you've a long way to run.




          FA, a long, long way to run




          If you want to end me, you'll need an apparent pun.




          A LURE?




          Seek my middle, and you'll find a tech holy grail,




          AI (Artificial Intelligence) is a tech holy grail




          Though its inherent dangers would make many go pale.




          Failure has inherent dangers for sure




          Come to me! You'll find science, or maybe a tourney.




          Science is all about failure leading to success, tourneys have multiple losers and only one winner.




          I'm a trait of a trait of your very first journey.




          Your first journey was crawling? A trait of this was instability/falling? And a trait of that is failure.




          I'm a part of the best games, as most recommend.




          Most games hinge on initial failures and subsequent improvements.




          But for many a couple, I'm the end of the end.




          A failure to communicate, maybe?

          (Got to this answer with help from El-Guest)



          Are you




          FAIR?




          If you want to start me, you've a long way to run.




          FAir: a long long way to run (never would've thought of this if not for El-Guest)




          If you want to end me, you'll need an apparent pun.




          App-AIR-ent




          Seek my middle, and you'll find a tech holy grail, Though its inherent dangers would make many go pale.




          fAIr: Artificial Intelligence (treating the second line of this hint as a warning of AI itself, rather than talking about FAIR)




          Come to me! You'll find science, or maybe a tourney.




          Science fairs are a big thing. And I'm pretty sure county fairs have competitions (tourneys) for raising big animals and growing big plants.




          I'm a trait of a trait of your very first journey.




          Not sure about this one, but my guess is that this has something to do with fare for airplane/train/ship tickets?




          I'm a part of the best games, as most recommend.




          Most people like the games they play to be fair.




          But for many a couple, I'm the end of the end.
