About Trail Running
Trail running takes running off-road onto natural terrain including dirt paths, forest trails, mountain paths, and rocky surfaces. The uneven terrain engages more stabilizer muscles than road running, providing a more complete workout. Trail running burns more calories than road running due to elevation changes, varied surfaces, and the need for constant adjustments in stride and balance. It also reduces impact on joints compared to pavement running and offers the mental health benefits of being in nature.
