Norman Running Routes

Finding a quality and safe place to run in Norman sometimes seems like a nightmare. One website makes mapping a run more simple. Www.mapmyrum.com provides running routes throughout Norman provided by local runners. However there are a few helpful hints runners should know about the routes.
Runs listed on the site include distances from half of a mile to over 30 miles, but some have issues. For instance, part of the route for a six-mile run included running through trees and what can be assumed as a dirt trail. This is an issue if it has just rained or if you are a pavement runner. Also some runs include streets that do not have sidewalks. This can be hazardous to the night runner or if the street has high traffic.
Having a map for local running routes will save a runner a lot of time and effort. However, do research on the routes before hitting the pavement. Remember it is the general public who posting these routes, not running experts.

PWOP/SOP

The purpose of this PWOP assignment and picture was to manipulate daily objects in order to tell a story about someone without actually having a person in the photo. Here I have taken my roommate's belongings to show her personality. She is an avid runner and loves to stay fit, this is why I have included her running shoes and the water bottle. I have tried to incorporate some general picture taking skills we have learned in the class and incorporate a sense of depth.

In the picture of the stadium my goal was to capture the structure and setting of the world around me. I chose our football stadium because this is a great representation of our University and the tradition that is apart of it. I wanted to in corporate the large scale of the building, but also the cars parked on the street and the life around the building. It is a structure I see almost everyday but never take the time to appreciate it.
