  • Exploring some more trails near my sister's house. This route could actually connect with the Devil's Den route that I had done the day before. The terrain is similar, but the difficulty was another level. Very messy. Very challenging. A lot of fun.
    I started down at the south end and ran along the trail to the north end and back. About 11.4 miles total.

    Such a beautiful video, even on such a foggy, dreary day. I think you nailed why I have a hard time enjoying trails running on lots of terrains….it’s much harder to get into a rhythm. The miles don’t tick off without noticing. I’d love to learn to enjoy running on trails bc it’s a completely different mentality. Happy New Years, Ko!

      I am sure the more you do it the more you enjoy it. The uphills the the downhills it’s all about perceived effort and find a good flow , joe gray and killian jornet great mountain runners don’t run 5 or 6 minute miles in there races the whole time. Happy trails 🏞

      You learn to find flow in the struggle. It's different than getting lost in rhythm but often even more enjoyable.

      Happy new year sister women 1❤🤛🏾Girl you need to hit the trails this winter. It helps keep the road running feash. Once or twice every few months.

      @jesus Hernandez @mike davey you guys are spot on! And so true about even the faster trail runners. I often struggle getting through even two miles on a treadmill but can usually eventually get into a rhythm and is part of the fun (getting through the struggle). But switching up the terrains and scenery is realllly good for avoiding burnout so I will take these comments to heart. And yours too, @Mr Random!

    If you enjoyed that trail, you should explore just a bit to the north and the west the trail system in Ward Pound Ridge Reservation. Bring the Hoka Zinals and a willingness to do river crossings if the weather is correct. Send me a DM if you want a tour of the river crossings and overlooks.

    My husband has lived here all his life and has never been. We have a new place to hike! And yes all Connecticut trails are rocky and seem to be all uphill. You should go north and check out Litchfield (county) next time you are around.

    What a fantastic video! Epic music and such a beautiful looking place. The fog really made it eerie and so pretty. Pretty cool camera work too! Loved the ground level shots of your feet and the panning shots. That trail looked pretty challenging but also like something that would be a lot of fun to try and run.

  • @HoytMcBeth

    Nice video amazing scenery, yeah bugger that if you are tying to do a good tempo threshold type trail run, to many stops & starts & very high risk of injury over those pointy slip sliding rocks, I like rolling up & down hills with some not to technical trails, so ya can get a good flowing workout, but it’s also good to do what you are doing, changing it up with completely different scenery & energy, 🙏

    there's something majestic about a foggy forrest, the diffuse light and all the leaves on the ground. one of the most rewarding landscapes to run through. you've caught the atmosphere perfectly.
    also those sauconys look intriguing! happy new year Mike.

    Love to hear your thoughts on the Salomon Ultra Glide on this type of terrain as its close to many trail races in the East Coast. With that said I understand your on vacation and unfortunately can’t take all you trail shoes. Have a great week, and best of luck in 2022 with your races…

    Awesome video Mike - looks like a bunch of the stuff I run on these days agreed on the Rhythm thing - which I why like Sage I am an any surface kind of guy and like to vary things a lot - Looks like 2022 is going to be a bit more concentrated on the trails though with the way things are shaping up right now.

    Is that a 2022 Saucony trail shoe? In the last video it looked orange and in this one it looks yellow, or are they two different shoes? Thanks for these atmospheric trail videos!
