Trail Running for Dummies

When humans first started running, it was obviously not on pavement or a treadmill, it was on a dirt path, animal trail or in an open meadow. This type of running made them stronger and more balanced, and it can do the same for you!

RR - Continental Divide Trail Race

Despite [url=http://www.trifuel.com/forum/22157/rr-mud-mud-mud-snow-also-mud]previous protestations to the contrary,[/url] I did in fact run a trail race again. And I'm glad I did.

RR - Mud, mud, mud, snow, also mud

What I experienced today was not so much a race as it was a character building experience.

Original plan: Trail half marathon. Water crossing or boulder crossing. Looked like fun.

Revised plan: Trail 10ish mile run. They had to change the course, partly due to snow (3/4" last night) and partly due to high water at the crossing.

Winter Trail Etiquette

Hey everyone!

Just wondering what the trail running rules are in the winter. If there is a foot of snow and there is a fresh skiing line going right through the middle of the trail, should one run in the foot of snow or can one run on the skiing line?

Just want to make sure i know the rules.

Thank everyone and Have a Happy New Year!

Rocky Raccoon 50k trail run Race(r) Report

#1 I wanted to thank all of you who recommended I go for the 50k instead of the 25k (before tomorrow comes, and I cannot move ;)

The race was at Huntsville State Park which is about an hour and a half outside of Houston. Fortunately, my brother's GF lives about 20 minutes from there, so I spent the night at her house and had a short drive in the morning.

KING, BECK WIN XTERRA TRAIL RUN NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP

BEND, OR (September 27, 2008) - Several hundred athletes from 21 states gathered at the upscale Old Mill District in Bend today for the fourth annual XTERRA Trail Running National Championship on an incredibly beautiful, crisp and clear morning along the Deschutes River.

Outside Magazine called this the best trail running town in America, and some of the fastest runners from around the state of Oregon and across the nation came to put its reputation to the test.

Seeking advice for running in the rain

Hi all,

I am running in the inaugural Rose Bowl Half Marathon in Pasadena this Saturday. I am excited about the race as the Arroyo Seco area the race is held in is very pretty and I grew up around here. It is a mix of roads and trails and should be interesting.
