You have me itching to go do this soon. Just wondering start to finish, the amount of time you plan to be gone. Do you go early in the morning, or while your kids are in school? <br /><br />Also, do you go alone? It sounds sublime, having that time and the trail to yourself. Do you ever feel uneasy or nervous alone on the trail?Rach H @ FamilyEverAfterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07974798183359234103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6066507067825029542.post-24222940711735170152012-11-11T18:45:39.943-07:002012-11-11T18:45:39.943-07:00I am in L O V E with winter running.

I laughed, because my season is JUST beginning, now that its cooling off. They way you described the layering is the best. It's kind of amazing how hot you can get running, even when it's only 30 degrees outside. Agree that full length tights are the Kaseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12835701399105294561noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6066507067825029542.post-75532262126336156692012-11-10T08:41:11.705-07:002012-11-10T08:41:11.705-07:00Can you talk a bit about how one should start trai...Can you talk a bit about how one should start trail running? I run prolifically--but always on the road. I've done a few Ragnars (Wasatch Back), and would love to take my running to the trails. What are some good beginner spots? How do you find appropriate trails? Are hiking trails the same as running trails? What are the particular challenges trail running trails?

Maybe a marathon will change my mind as well?

Cut off the ends so that they are like tubes. I always found my hands would oscillate between cold and warm on runs so it is great to have the freedom of wearing them up or pulling them down to my wrists when I got warmer. Plus as they were old recycled socks I didn't mind blowing my nose in them......easy to wash and I Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05987589568739870713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6066507067825029542.post-4069490988715091212012-11-08T09:37:59.193-07:002012-11-08T09:37:59.193-07:00I feel the same way about mountain biking which I&...I feel the same way about mountain biking which I've done for the last 20 years. Started trail running this past February and fell in love with it as well, for similar reason as running and it's so simple, not much gear required. Did two trail races this year and now I'm injured. Tendonitis in my right ankle, down for 4 to 6 weeks, AGH!

I haven't run in about 3 years though because of a recurring ligament problem in my foot. Hoping it's on it's way out as I'm currently strapped into a fancy boot for a month. :) My break with running introduced me to biking and swimming, which I enjoy even more.

I realize running and most activity in itself works the core, but I was just interested if you did any other specific exercises? Thanks so much! I just love your blog!
