Trail running, some of the most magical time spent running will be out exploring the great trails of our local parks. You will get dirty, you may get wet, and your will be guaranteed some great views! You'll get in those "bonus miles" and it's AWESOME. This is a unique training program specifically designed for trail runners; people who don't shy away from getting their running shoes dirty, enjoy the challenge of running the hills, who hanker for a glimpse of a coyote or an eagle, and who look forward to spectacular views you only find on trails around the area. We will be taking the team on fun and challenging trails around the North State. This 9-week program will target our Fall Trail Classic race on October 19th. We'll start at 6 miles and work our way up to 13 miles.
