Tracking mileage

There are sites that track mileage, map out routes, and keep pace.  Runnersworld.com has  a training page.

dailymile.com is cool because it will connect to Facebook and is simple to use.

Racing in the summer

There are other runs in the area just to have do a bit of searching, plus wisport has a trail running series with one race in Iola.  I am doing the 1st two myself so I expect to see runners at some of the events.
