Be You Training Programs: Trail Running 101

DUE TO SEVERE IMPACTS ON OUR BUSINESS, WE NO LONGER HAVE STAFF TO MANAGE THIS TRAINING PROGRAM. WE REGRET TO INFORM YOU THAT WE HAVE TO CANCEL.

Are you looking to hit the trails this summer, but don’t know where to start? Train with us on Wednesday evenings at 6 pm starting April 22, 2020, for a 4-week session on the basics of trail running! You will learn specific running skills that will help you on the trails including running downhill, running uphill, technical footwork, trail safety, course strategy, shoes, and gear.

Let our expert coaches empower you to hit the trails with confidence, and share their love of trail running with you. The Pacific Northwest is one of the best places in the entire country to run trails.

While focused on beginners, the programs are also open to experienced participants as we train for the Tiger Mountain Trail Run on Saturday, May 16, organized by Northwest Trail Runs. This event has options for a 5K, 12K, half-marathon, and 50K. Participants in Trail Running 101 will receive 10% off registration for the Tiger Mountain Trail run distance of their choice.
