Ever become a slave to that one running route? You know who you are...You could probably run it in your sleep. Truly! Your muscles know it by heart and you are probably quite good at it. It is important to run varied routes/courses to improve strength, avoid injury, mental burn out and adaptation. PB long run routes change every weekend to keep you body guessing and start locations move every two or three weekends to keep your mental status sane.

PB long run courses are out and back so you can run as far or as short as your schedule or body dictates that day! Course distance varies from ten to twenty-two miles depending upon the training schedules.
