Jennifer’s Trail Tip

June 29, 2010

Jennifer Foster, one of our fantastic trail running coaches, sent me a trail tip and I thought I would pass it on:

“If you are going to do a lot of trail running, you might want to consider purchasing a second pair of shoes that are designed more specifically for trail running. Not all trails will be rocky and muddy and uneven, but the fun ones sure are. The trail shoe has a different tread pattern which gives you more grip. They also usually have a wider platform which provides more stability and so you are less likely to experience the dreaded ankle roll. Don’t confuse trail runners with hiking shoes; runners are much lighter and more flexible.”

Thanks Jennifer!
