I hope this isn't too dumb of a question but what's the best way to start collecting location history? Will it run down my iphone battery.

The Google app on the iPhone has the option of storing and reporting location history. You can enable it by Google App -> Settings (Gear icon on the top left) -> Privacy -> Location -> Location Reporting.

They claim to have optimized the app not to drain the battery life. I have been using it for over an year and I don't see an issue with my battery life.
