rain Running: Going off tarmac

Ever wondered why a 6 min/km on the road feels like an absolute breeze, but a 6 min/km on a muddy bush track leaves you completely breathless?

In this episode of

The Kilted Athlete Podcast, we are stepping off the predictable, flat pavement and diving headfirst into the rugged world of trail running. If you think you can just lace up your standard road shoes and smash out your usual distance in the woods, it’s time for a major reality check.

We break down:

  • The Pace Trap: Why your GPS watch pace means absolutely nothing on the dirt, and why "Power Hiking" is actually a secret weapon.
  • The Gear Shift: We talk trail shoes (and why you shouldn't just wear your oldest pair of road shoes), hydration and safety equipment.
  • Why Strength is Essential:How to adapt your strength training for power and stability.
  • The Unforgettable Experiences: Beautiful scenery, great people and other pro's of trail running.

Whether you're a seasoned road marathoner looking for a fresh challenge or a total beginner wanting to escape the concrete jungle, this episode is your ultimate guide to going off-tarmac.
