Trail Running

San Diego has a great outdoor life all year round. One great way to enjoy the great outdoors is by taking your run off the road and on to one of the many running trails the area has to offer.

Trail running is different from road running and track running. Trail running is often done on hiking trails or fire roads. These trails tend to cross terrains such as hills, mountains deserts or forests and can include sleep inclines or rough patches of trail.

Some trail runners prefer training on trails for exercise while others would rather be out in the wild. Many trail running aficionados will take part in trail running trips, which involve camping and carrying light backpacks and gear.

Trail running has gained special popularity in recent years in the Western U.S. and California. It is now one of the most prominent sports in the outdoor community. It is a great way for those who enjoy road running to get out and enjoy the softer trails and beautiful scenery they have to offer.

Trails can vary in difficulty, length and terrain. A more difficult trail may involve leaping over logs, rocks and roots. These types of trails can cure the doldrums that one can experience after many years of monotonous exercise.
