What's the next step for pursuing a semi LDR?

When we were walking along at night and our arms were bumping into each other I wish I could have taken her hand or kissed her, but I don't know what's appropriate on a 1st date. Now if she actually shows up for a 2nd date I don't want to blow any chances to connect with her

If she's walking close enough to be bumping you, by all means hold her hand or offer your arm.   Whether it progresses to a kiss depends on how she acts after you've made initial contact.   

Though given you've a 4-5 hr distance, I'm not sure why either of you are bothering.  Are you going into this with the understanding that a fail is highly likely?

She said she's willing to drive halfway and doesn't mind traveling since she travels a lot for work already. Part of her job involves flying somewhere every month and she's always driving 1.5 to 2 hours anyway. Where I live getting out of the city is very difficult, but once I can make it to the highway I don't mind going another hour or 2 to meet her. 

I do understand there is a high possibility of failure due to the distance involved, but figured it doesn't hurt to give it a try. It felt like we connected pretty well on the date. Although I've thought that before and gotten the horrific "no chemistry" text after before.

Funny enough this other woman who lives far away in another state matched with me when she was in my area and said she's open to a LDR and that I seem amazing. I don't understand why I seem to get along with these women who live far away, but the ones in my area all either unmatch before meeting or if I do get to a date give me the chemistry line. The one I was supposed to meet this weekend unmatched me after confirming and I had made reservations
