We love trail running, but it takes a little loving to get used to, so here\u2019s everything you need to know to get exploring those trails.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-892742886352c7c137696e03219f3350\">Trail running is one of the most exhilarating and exciting ways to move your body. There is the thrill of being in the great outdoors with stunning surroundings, with the added enjoyment of getting lost in your own world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-aa1c5dcec22857d6a6a0bc248f58b069\">Before you dive head-first into adventure, here are some of our top trail running tips to consider.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-0a2c7e5b310c17c279c4557c5ca0d47e\" style=\"color:#da8529;font-size:25px\">Safety First\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-3e3855b5dfa1e9b97e8cbb25dd7c1a59\">Make sure you\u2019re familiar with using a map and a compass. No matter how well you think you know the area, you should be able to navigate your way around without relying on a phone, and having the skills you need to orient yourself back to safety.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-b6f8ed3bf65ef8874bd870a9564e5677\" style=\"color:#da8529;font-size:25px\">Location Location Location\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-a75f287be190a8265f55d5b598852a86\">Choose a location that you know you\u2019ll enjoy and that you will be able to give a good crack at for your first few runs. Trail running is no joke, and so picking a location that feels like a toughie but a goodie is key to a good time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-b1ad058d127b338842dd0123995802f2\" style=\"color:#da8529;font-size:25px\">Taking it Steady\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-abeb348fa19fed1baaed7bc222f25e5b\">There is no race around here. Trail running can be speedy and pacey, but, for now, don\u2019t focus on the time, focus on getting used to the feeling and putting one foot in front of the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-087c69e72713fcade00a277bff2c5ac5\" style=\"color:#da8529;font-size:25px\">Trail Running Tips: Let&#8217;s Talk Technique <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-e2ac7b86f0b179585f2d034fd30e1121\">Talking of one foot in front of the other, you need to keep an eye to the ground and an eye up ahead. There are many different textures and interesting objects you will come across when trail running, so make sure you\u2019re aware of what&#8217;s around before you start trail flying instead of trail running.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-87d6b3664e7889d60b1651794f736f83\">Maintain a slightly wider arm position to enhance balance, especially on challenging trails with obstacles like tree roots and rocks. Adjust your stride accordingly \u2013 on trails, you&#8217;ll need to lift your feet higher to clear obstacles and may need to sidestep or hop over branches. Use your arms to pump and propel yourself forward to keep up the momentum. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-8e0ede28b966c57d90a464efbbf2a5b1\">On gentle descents along well-maintained trails, lean into the downhill slope, lengthen your stride, and allow the natural slope to guide your descent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-01636a73ec651c195bc33035abfc0478\">On challenging descents or steep terrain, use a stair-stepping technique instead. Mimic the motion of descending stairs, maintaining an upright posture while allowing your legs to bear the brunt of the effort.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-1e7026bc9b870ea7cf87b76fda610be7\" style=\"color:#da8529;font-size:25px\">Enjoy the Surroundings\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-9af010c3dc7e11a9f1cddabc0fe833bb\">Trail runs are nestled in the best of the best places. Take the time to take them in and enjoy your surroundings.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-724b0517285bc184acf214bb2095e484\" style=\"color:#da8529;font-size:25px\">Do you need specialist kit for trail running?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-fa887bc38d4a4b0ec9a0185cf0139eaa\">While you don\u2019t need a whole different set of kit, it is important to dress for the weather and the activity. The most important bit of kit for hitting the trails over the roads is the kind of shoe you wear. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pau.co.uk\/running\/footwear\/running-shoes\/trail-shoes\/instock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong><span style=\"text-decoration: underline\">Trail shoes<\/span><\/strong><\/a> have more grip and are designed to handle the dirt, roots, and shoots that will be underfoot. It is vital to get some that fit properly, too, as there is a lot of impact on the feet and so you need to be more than prepared with your choice of footwear. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-e3676f1c7a6cf4fc5a792f7482a47a88\">Practical, and essential.

After a rainy or muddy run, remove  the insoles, give them a good rinse to wash off the dirt, and stuff them with newspaper or paper towels to dry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:25px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-color has-link-color wp-elements-12b8fa6c2cf5fa5ae6a1ca8439dd1f6c\" style=\"color:#da8529;font-size:25px\">Practical, and Essential.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color has-link-color has-medium-font-size wp-elements-1d16711091e3e03a69ccb8899e250e6b\">The best advice we can give is to get on out there and enjoy the run. Whether you go long or short, fast or steady, the important thing is that you\u2019re getting into the great outdoors and potentially trying something new.
