ORIGINAL POSTER

How many extensions am I allowed? 

I did an extension back in February, then went back to the states for summer, and recently did an extension last month. 

I plan on doing a border run (my first one) before the 26th when my extension is over.

Can I do an extension off that re-entry so it goes into the next year?

TLDR : Answer Summary

In Thailand, the number of extensions you can apply for depends on the type of visa you entered with. If you entered as a tourist with a visa exempt or tourist visa, you are typically allowed one 30-day extension per entry. Additionally, it is possible to apply for another extension after completing a border run, as long as you meet the visa requirements.

You didn't say what you used to enter Thailand.

Assuming you entered as a tourist with visa exempt or tourist visa, then you can apply for one 30 day extension per entry.
