Trail Running: Female Athletes Embrace Endless Energy & Encouragement in the Fast-Growing Sport
As one of the fastest growing sports, trail running has become a mecca for endurance athletes. As a female being in this space, the energy is endless. The female community, for the most part, has never felt more encouraging. As new comers enter the sport, as new speed enters the sport, the openness of females relying on each other is super present. It’s often encouraging to call a girlfriend who has either ran the race that I am signed up for, or will be running the race i am signed up and just bounce overall ideas off each other. Being apart of the Craft team athletic clothing brands, with such talented women, we have a wealth of experience and knowledge that is limitless when thinking about race plans and the opportunity to feel that extra support from each other. The starting line is always the great equalizer, and of course we want our female counterparts to succeed, but when the gun blows as they say, it’s really the opportunity to put it all out there. The hay from the barn if you will.
