2024.09.18 - Run Wild
I overheard an older runner saying they don’t run trails because of the risk of falling. The reality is by avoiding trails, their risk of falling increases in day to day life. By running trails, we gain spatial awareness and balance, increasing our proprioception. It’s that use it or lose it thing again … As we age, we need the trails more than ever, and all through life, we need the meditative peace that comes from being in nature.
Run wild my friends,
Randy Step, an admitted obsessed runners who just returned from a glorious, misty morning run on the trail. And yes, road is a four letter word.
