Here are 5 reasons why trail running is actually great for you!
1/Stronger anyone?
Running in different shoes and different terrains helps to challenge the different muscles not only in your feet but your whole body, as such, you will tend to get a little stronger without even realising it.
2/Go explore!
It’s great to change up where you run, explore different trails, challenge yourself, run up some big hills and then come flying down them (preferably not on your butt! Hence good traction in a good trail shoe helps!)
3/Meet new people.
Trail running is exploding globally, Australia is no exception.
With the different trail running events around Australia, there’s sure to be an event near you.
