How to Hit Your Trail Running Goals Before Fall

By


Late summer seems to bring a sense of urgency to get as much accomplished athletically as possible before the weather turns. Trail running is no exception. Luckily for you, there’s still plenty of time to build momentum on the trail. Consistent weather, plenty of daylight, and a solid routine make it easier to add distance, improve endurance, or finally tackle the routes you’ve been eyeing all season.

Finish the season feeling stronger than you started with the right strategy, the right gear, and the following tips.

Keep Moving Forward with a Main Purpose

Instead of trying to improve everything at once, choose one clear goal before fall arrives. Maybe it’s completing a longer weekend run, climbing more elevation, or running your favorite trail faster than you have all season. A focused objective makes training feel more rewarding and gives every run a purpose. Lace up your extra wide toe box shoes and get one run closer to your goals.

Prioritize Comfort From the Ground Up


Trail running demands shoes that can keep up with changing terrain and intense hours on your feet. That’s where the right fit and preferred level of cushioning make an impact. From zero drop running shoes that deliver the most natural experience underfoot to highly cushioned trainers that help conquer technical terrain, give your feet and your runs room to breathe. The best shoes help you stay focused on the trail and may even feel like an extension of your natural abilities.


Build Consistency, Not Just Mileage

Progress doesn’t always come from running farther. Adding one extra trail run each week, mixing in hill repeats, or improving recovery habits can produce meaningful gains before the season changes. Small, consistent improvements often lead to the biggest breakthroughs. It takes patience and great shoes. Dependable, well-designed trail shoes are part of what helps you enjoy the journey. Get the specific color, design elements, and cushioning that help you chase new goals.

It’s time to dust off your hiking shoes (or test out a new pair) and hit the trails again. Spring is a great time of year to enjoy the outdoors because you never know where a beautiful, sunny day will take you. While some trail conditions are quite predictable, others may keep you on your toes. So, it’s best to be prepared with the right gear, including your trail shoes. Here are a few common challenges hikers face during the spring and what to keep in mind as you navigate new terrain. Muddy Conditions + Lug Spacing on the Outsole Tacky trails are fun, but when they become muddy, it can present some challenges. But mud goes with the territory in the springtime, and you need a trail shoe that gives you total confidence. One recommendation is zero drop hiking shoes with generously spaced lugs on the outsole. Proper spacing will release mud from the bottom of the shoe like a hero. A zero drop platform is an excellent choice because it keeps the forefoot and heel at the same height...

When you put in the miles in performance shoes ahead of a big race, you feel unstoppable! Here are some tips for choosing the best running shoes to get you to the finish line. Comfort Above All Else It’s easy to get swept up in the hype of what everyone else is wearing or simply choosing a shoe because you love the color or style. But the main priority should be comfort. If your shoes are uncomfortable when you try them on, it’s probably not going to get better after running a few miles in them. Low drop daily trainers are an excellent place to start. At the end of the day, fit and feel matter more than anything if your shoes allow you to perform your best. Replace and Rotate Between Pairs While it’s not “required,” if you tend to log a lot of miles, rotating between two pairs can ...
