Farm roads :-)

As the local county police advised against running on the 4-lane highway
30 east
my crew Connie and I decided to run some small farm roads instead -
after an excellent survey of the course by Connie the previous day.

Despite that I usually isn?t too happy about running the smaller roads:
there is often no hard shoulder on the road for safety and the traffic
mostly is not so used to other traffic on the road; still the view of the
quiet landscape with a few farm scattered along the windy road through the
tall green cornfields was much worth it :-)

By the way my host from a few days back, Mitch Harper, has kindly send the
link to an article in the Delphos Newspaper:

- Thanks Mitch! It?s hardly ever that I get to see the media interviews
myself as I usually is far gone when it gets printed. ... I am surprised
how tired I look... ;-)
