Ten miles was nothing short, even for Lucas. However, after doing such activities continuously—almost daily—he had already gotten used to it. The Starlight Academy alone was three miles away from his home. Not to mention his daily run; he would have to travel such a distance by foot twice a day.
Lucas took a glance at the towering building of the Starlight Academy as he ran at a moderate pace. He did not get close to the academy, however, and remained running on the road seldom traveled by the masses.
The main road, where everyone traveled, was located at the next block. Lucas would pass by that road later and then go to the public park to cool off a little before returning to complete the ten-mile morning run.
Arriving at the crossroad, Lucas stopped for a bit to let the traffic pass before crossing over.
