favorite terrain (Read 284 times)

joker515 posted: 5/14/2007 at 2:13 AM what is your favorite terrain and why mine is dirt roads... grass and gravel are ok, but i hate asphalt and cement, they mess up my knees. there is nothing better than the feel of nice soft dirt gently squishing under your feet the runners will take over the world, we are well trained and have a very high level of endurance as well as strength

Hard-packed dirt is good, too. k Kirsten '07: 1324.5 mi '08: 1561 mi ... • Ladies Locker Room • .: 2009 Goals :. • Run 1750 miles • 2 marathons (May - Bayshore, Fall - ?) • PRs: 5k ~ 15k ~ 25k? ~ HM ~ 26.2 • 1st trail relay (North Country)
