Used to be an avid runner, ran plenty of 5K’s up to marathons and then got into the ultra scene and ran everything up to and including 100 milers

Just moved in the middle of nowhere and this is nothing but farms. No pavement or dirt roads to run on either. I have a park with a half mile loop about 20 min. out and that’s it.

Its nice being out where I am but sucks not having a place to run.

    Man, I miss living in a rural area where you can safely road run in the countryside. Where did you move, OP? I bet there’s great routes that you just haven’t discovered yet.

      Don’t want to give out my location but roads around me are all 55+ now with people pushing 70… Not sure if I am brave enough to run even in the ditches

      I checked Strava heat map, Garmin connect maps and hiking app with no luck:( but I’m happy to hear more suggestions
