Beginner clinics
Two hours from trail-curious to trail runner.
Groups of 8 to 12 beginners with a guide who keeps it fun, safe and unhurried. Nobody gets left behind, and walking is part of trail running.

Passing, yielding, closures after rain, and a plan for your next four weeks.

Who it's for
Adults who can run or run-walk about 3 miles on the road and want to try trails safely. Not a race, not a boot camp.
