Trail Running: Where Every Step is an Adventure

Here are key points to keep in mind on the trails:

Foundation Building: Strengthen up! Building a strong body foundation through targeted strength resistance training boosts endurance and helps prevent injuries, ensuring you're ready for any trail challenge.

Terrain Changes: Be prepared for varied terrain that affects your performance, adjusting your stride and pace to maintain efficiency and minimize risk.

Individual Form: Find your rhythm! While form varies, focus on mastering fundamental running techniques that suit your body, without getting bogged down in rigid textbook form.

Hip Drop: A hip that is weak or struggling on the road will only be further weakened by uneven terrain. This can easily spread and affect the lower back, knees, and ankles.

Injury Awareness: With 50% of runners experiencing injuries annually, and 25% sidelined at any given time, prioritize injury prevention through proper strength training and ideal footwear.

Remember: Your shoes matter! Invest in proper trail running footwear for stability and support tailored to your unique needs, one size/brand doesn’t fit all.
