-Know something about remote trail running. If you are used to road running, or
your trail running experience is on carriage roads or mown cross country ski
trails you need to be aware that these trails are remote and rugged (in the
best possible way). If you are
unable to physically prepare for the remoteness make sure to mentally prepare
yourself. Your split times and
miles per hour mean very little here.
BE PREPARED TO ACCEPT AND ENJOY WALKING!
-Be physically prepared. You can always do more than you think. That being said it is your
responsibility to your fellow runners in our group to be physically prepared
for this day of running. We will
try to function as a community but there is no guarantee or expectation that
people will wait for you. Be
prepared to run alone.
-Bring your own Food and Water. I can’t say this enough… This is
not an organized race. There will
be no aid stations or water jugs.
You must bring everything you need.
-Be prepared to help your fellow runner. We will not run as a group. There is no expectation for aid. Food and water will be supplied by you. However, we are all people and it will
always be hoped that we will do the right thing. I would rather cut a run short than leave someone bloodied
or broken. Please do the thing
that needs doing.
-Be excited.
This should be really fun!
We are trying to promote a healthy lifestyle and that is the most
successful when it is fun. Get
your friends and family excited.
