Trail running is awesome.
The next person to tell me that natural surfaces are easier on the body is invited to come trail running with me.
Trails that are shared with horses are often difficult to run on.
They are even harder to run on when frozen.
Worse than that is when they are half frozen.
Wet sandstone is less slippery than wet limestone.
Sandstone and limestone are equally slippery when covered with a sheet of ice.
Picking your way on a technical trail can be fun.
Bombing down a non-technical trail is also fun.
Discovering that the non-technical trail you are bombing down abruptly becomes technical is not so fun.
Ankle deep oak leaves are very good at obscuring trails.
Running half the trail in X amount of time does not mean you will cover the second half in the same time.
