Trail running is my favourite type of running. For me, number 10 is the most important, it is heaps of fun!
My favourite spots for trails running is Point Addis, Distillery Creek and Phantom falls in Lorne. I love running in the Sonian Forest in Brussels too. This is where I grew up and where I fell in love with it. Give it a try, you won’t regret it. You don’t need trail shoes unless you are running on rocks or in the mud. Trail runners will give you more grip and more stability but they are also heavier and not as flexible in the propulsion phase. Have fun 🙂
