Wanting to kick-off the weekend with a good run because of indoor track Regional meet tonight and tomorrow, head coach Curtis Vais, contacted me for a long run this morning. We headed out to some near-by gravel roads that consist of some of the few hills to be found around Mason City.

This route afforded us the benefit of solid footing and room to run while talking (assuming I could keep up) in addition to some hills. The run went fairly well for me, though I tired from the steadiness of the roads and no change in foot plant that I get at the trails.
Upon return home, I used Google Earth to estimate the distance of our route and found it was nearly 11 miles. My most consistent run, not on trails, in a long time.
