Why not try trail running?

The spring season of the Sydney Trail Series continues this Sunday, October 22 at the St Ives Wildflower gardens. It’s a fun day out and trail running is a great way to add variety to your training:

- Running outdoors offers a change of scenery and terrain, which can make your workout more interesting and challenging:
- Running outdoors allows you to connect with nature and appreciate the environment around you
- Running outdoors can help reduce stress and anxiety, and improve overall mental health
