As there is a risk of injury, street shoes should not be used for trail running.
Here are a couple of rules to make it run smoothly:
- Put aside your daily stress and enjoy moving outside within beautiful natural scenery.
- Take your time! Your training will depend on your age, general health, physique, and cardio.
- Pay attention to proper running and breathing techniques.
- Running is fun! Monotony is the beginning of the end. Try varied your trails in length and intensity.
- Warm-up: Easy stretches are recommended before and after your training. This will help the mobility of your muscles and protect you from injuring them.
- Cool-down: slow down in pace. Adapt your cool-down phase to the duration of the trail.
- Nutritional advice: do not eat for approx. 2 hours before your training but drink a lot of water before and during your run. After your training, eat carbs like pasta, potatoes, wheat, rice,...
- Wear sweat-wicking clothes and chose the right running shoes for yourself (they should have a 1/2 inch gap at the front). Your shoes should offer shock-absorption, stabilization and the right rolling characteristics.
