While there are many reasons people get into trail running, there’s also simply a unique dynamic among those who have been running for years. Running is a passion and part of our identity rather than something we’re doing for fitness or status.
I have always just “dealt” with the feeling of being trapped under a blanket that’s tied down with bricks. Running away from the starkness of February is no simple task. The warm blanket of despair and hopelessness is wrapped in negative self talk and withdrawal and isolation.
