Where the Rest of Us Run--My Hill Repeats


The Lower Rio Grande Valley is actually a river delta, not a valley. I have to drive an hour to get to the closest hill--unless I want to run up and down a freeway overpass. 










Instead I often run in a local park with two soccer fields. The soccer fields are in a basin designed to catch runoff in flood conditions, and are twenty feet or so below street level. I can be seen some mornings running up and down those twenty-foot berms, trying to get some hill repeats in.
