For many runners there’s nothing better than run

For many runners there’s nothing better than running through the woods, over roots and rocks while enjoying being in nature. Trail running offers benefits you won’t get from road running. Here are a few tips to make your next trail run safe, enjoyable and fun!⁠
⁠
1. Choose the Right Trail⁠
Before hitting the trail, check out the type of terrain that’s involved to be sure it’s suitable for your fitness level.⁠
⁠
2. Get Proper Shoes⁠
Invest in trail shoes because the terrain can be rugged. They are designed to prevent your foot from twisting and the soles feature lugs that help provide solid footing.⁠
⁠
3. Dress For Success⁠
The key is to dress in layers as the weather can change on the trails. Many trail runners also carry a small backpack with extra clothing, snacks, a first aid kit and water.⁠
⁠
4. Watch Where You’re Going⁠
“Be careful not to trip over roots as they are a common cause of ankle sprains,” Taunton says. “And be aware that when running uphill, the force through the knees equals your body weight. But on the downhills, the force through the knee is three to four times your body weight, stressing the cartilage significantly more. Try to select trails that allow you to go down in stages instead of one long blast downhill.”⁠
⁠
5. Don’t Panic If Things Go Wrong⁠
Thinking and planning about what might go wrong and learning to deal with the unknowns will serve you well on your trail adventures.⁠
⁠
6. Be Safe⁠
If you’re running alone, be sure to tell someone where you’re going as well as being certain of the trail geography so you don’t get lost. Consider bringing a cell phone and ensure you have enough water to go the distance.⁠
⁠
7. Respect The Trail⁠
While you’re out on a distant trail, be sure to respect the natural environment by following trail signage, being considerate of other trail users such as hikers or mountain bikers, packing out what you pack in, not feeding the wildlife and staying on designated trails.⁠
