Wind.
Wide open horizons.

At Good Earth Farm in Lennox, South Dakota, there is an annual ultra marathon called, The Blood Run.
It is an homage to the native land that was once called Blood Run, now Good Earth State Park a few miles away.
This run isn’t so much a race, as it is an aspiration toward individual achievement.
How far will your mind let your body go?
