Hard to know where to start as they aren't as plentiful around here as road shoes!<br />Good luck - you're gonna love it!That Pink Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16293455614178904012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-892506252169617105.post-44214710680018490742011-08-30T14:48:34.458-04:002011-08-30T14:48:34.458-04:00That's the tough part.

He's an atlanta trail runner and good friend of mine. We're talking about doing a trail ultra together next year. He's done a bunch.Carolina Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14834384961037080805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-892506252169617105.post-23309548490289756052011-08-30T10:22:52.955-04:002011-08-30T10:22:52.955-04:00Trail running is highly addictive.

The only reason I don't do it more often is because I have to drive to the nearest trail, while the pavement is right outside my door.<br />And yes, having trail running shoes helps when grip matters.<br />You will have loads of fun.Ewahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17005438284707424779noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-892506252169617105.post-14063848190001078382011-08-29T23:31:04.411-04:002011-08-29T23:31:04.411-04:00Hope you have fun with this one and stay safe :)!Hope you have fun with this one and stay safe :)!Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03150626438827196914noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-892506252169617105.post-1184652695856825392011-08-29T22:36:40.550-04:002011-08-29T22:36:40.550-04:00Thanks for asking how we are doing in Vermont.

If you do bust your butt it isn't nearly as painful as on asphalt so usually it's get up, dust yourself off and keep running. That should be lots of fun!<br />We have one of the Xterra branded trail runs here and it is super technical. I have done a half marathon on that course and it was crazy! <br />My favorite part about trail run is that you don't have a clock at every mile to dwell on. Much more fun that way i say.KC (my 140 point 6 mile journey)https://www.blogger.com/profile/05183039121953689933noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-892506252169617105.post-38933710293020347532011-08-29T16:32:14.873-04:002011-08-29T16:32:14.873-04:00That sounds awesome!
