Members of the 412th Test Wing run on Roger's Dry Lakebed during the Installation Fitness Run Aug. 7. The lakebed is made up of compacted clay covering approximately 44 square miles on Edwards with runways used for aircraft emergency landings. The 2.8-mile run began and finished in front of building 1830. After leaving the taxi-way, runners were completely surrounded by desert as they watched the base disappear in the distance. There were no distinguishing landmarks on the dry lakebed; GPS devices were used to lay out the course.
