Runner's World Complete Guide to Trail Running Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)It's funny how, because there is a picture showing a woman running up front, that some people assume this is a book soley for women.Not so.This is a nice, rounded introduction to off-road running for everyone.Barrios gives useful advice on gear, technique, etiquette, health maintenance and first-aid.Even more enjoyable to me is her encouragement to see trail running as belonging to a much wider population than just the ultra adventurists.Trail running doesn't have to be only a competitive endeavour -- it can also be a fun way to bring some activity and connection to nature into our lives.It can even be meditative, a nice break from an otherwise frenetic life.

Well worth the investment, especially if you are tentatively considering starting in.
