There’s something feral about trail running that draws me in. The freedom, the connection with nature, the anticipation of the unknown! It’s a feeling like no other, and I’ve gotten to explore many places I didn’t even know existed once I stepped out of my comfort zone!
The roots, the rocks, the mud, all add to the adventure. I’d happily trade my Mon – Fri for this if I could earn a decent paycheck, but let’s be honest here too. It wouldn’t be any fun all alone! Part of the excitement is being surrounded by other trail runners, even complete strangers.
We’re all out here for a common purpose, and I’m pretty sure we thrive on both the adrenaline rush and our love of the great outdoors…Except maybe those first timers that didn’t know what they were in for. I’ve been there and done that too! 😆 But with faith over fear I kept putting one foot in front of the other, and here I am loving every minute! You should give it a try!
