Trail Running

Trail running refers to the sport of running on outdoor trails, typically in natural environments like mountains, forests, or hills, rather than on paved roads. It emphasizes navigation over varied terrains, including dirt paths, rocky surfaces, and steep inclines. Trail running is distinct from road running due to the elevation changes, obstacles, and varying surfaces that challenge the runner’s endurance and agility. It often involves a mixture of running and hiking, especially on steep or technical segments, and it can be performed in a range of conditions and settings. Trail runners often use specialized footwear designed for traction and support on uneven ground. This sport is not only a form of exercise but also a way to connect with nature and experience diverse landscapes while promoting physical fitness and mental resilience.
