Blood & Mud

A few reasons trail running is amazing:

ADVENTURE

sliding on mud

Never washing my trail shoes and collecting dirt from every trail I’ve run

Technical single track trails that have my heart racing

Hi! You have any advice on this cold winter trainnings? I have passed days because of the temperatures, should I cover all up or just a light jacket? I'd apreciate your advice so much. Thanks on advance.

Just dont over extend yourself. I see winter as just keeping me fot for when spring comes

Hey! I've seen that you're using nike+ and I have a question. So do you need internet connection to track how much you've run? I'm using runkeeper and it only needs connection to save my run. The only thing I need is GPS while I'm running. But I've heard that nike+ is better, so I was wondering does it also only need GPS or wifi too? And sensor that goes in your shoe? Thank you so much xoxo

Only Time I need internet is when I upload my data. Works on GPS

Its rough but I manage

Do you have any tips on winter running? I'm usually a swimmer, and want to get into running, but it's around -20 C here and I find my throat really starts to hurt after only a couple of minutes and the cold hurts to breath. Any tips on getting over this, or making it not an issues?

Get running toghst wear gloves. Dont over extend yourself
