Goal
To teach you all you need to know about running on trails so that you can safely enjoy them on your own, and (if you want), to be able to train for and successfully complete a trail ultra-marathon in the future. Here are just a few of the many questions we may (or may not) answer:
  • Where can I run on trails?
  • Do I need special running shoes?
  • Aren’t there rocks and roots?
  • Will I get eaten by a bear?
  • What clothing should I wear?
  • What should I eat and/or drink?
  • What happens if (when) I fall?
  • Are snipe in the Kettle Moraine?
  • Where is the nearest bathroom?

Dates/Locations/Times
Session #1 - Meeting - We will have an informational session & explain trail running. Come with questions.

Sessions #2-#7 - We will carpool from the Pettit National Ice Center 84th Street Park & Ride @ 7:00 a.m. At the trailheads, we will break into three groups and practice various techniques on the trails, gradually building the distances each group runs. We will return 10:45 a.m. from session #2, then progressively later from subsequent sessions.
