TRAIL RUNNING 101. This is such a great video full of detailed breakdown of trail running advice and tips. Whether somebody is a new or a veteran trail runner, this video is very helpful. Thanks for another amazing video my friend and for including me in it. I can't wait to get back in the trails again. Oh and you make trail running look so effortless as always, I hope to run with you one day so I can slow you down. Hahaha. Be safe and take care always Sage.
Shout out to all the TH-cam trail video creators ... one of the main reasons I started my channel was because there weren’t many “trail tutorial” videos out there for my VA trails that actually talked about what to look out for
Great tips Sage, I liked the circles that moved as you ran & staying loose is spot on, you see some folk run & they look so stiff, watching the best fell runners run down hill quickly makes you realise how loose you need to be 👍🏃
I have built the bad habit of looking down, especially after long miles. I will try the of the rule of thirds, loved that tip! The tree grab is something I do a lot and makes me feel like a kid again. Lol
Great video! I also TH-cam search for races I will be doing, or even just new trails. Great tip! To quote Seth James DeMoor "Eyes up, pump arms, quick feet" is a great mantra. This is a really well done and put together video!
I admire people who can run like this -- and on rocks! I seem to have bad coordination -- even just coming down steps in my house! lol! Lots of good tips and things for me to think about for rocky runs.
Thx for watching Becky. If you know your strength and weaknesses then you are ahead of the game. You can improve your foot/eye coordination through practice and simple drills.
Top tips mate! It can sometimes be like gymnastics when your out there jumping and climbing over things. You can't beat a good technical trail. Thanks for sharing your advice with us Sage! 😎🤘🏻
I like the rule of thirds. Neuromuscular training has improved my trail running, as you said, we often have to make split-second decisions. Thanks Sage!
@@TrailSage I was visualizing this video running on the snow-covered technical trails this Saturday, and wish there was a "snow" version of the video. Going downhill my Hoka's turned into well-waxed downhill racing skis. Loving your content, Sage!
Great job putting into words what so many of us learned the hard way! Really like your rule of thirds tip. Great info for anyone looking to get into trail running!
Hats off to you for taking on the tougher trails! This stuff just scares me - my ankles tend to give way too easily - but great advice here! Keep pushing!
@@TrailSage I've had a crap right ankle since I wasa kid, even after physical therapy. The best thing that ever happened to my ankle was a catastrophic injury while ice climbing. A month in 3 different casts, combined with 4 months of physical therapy, and that sucker is SOLID!! 😆 So I hear you. I always have simple knee and ankle braces in my vest- good thing, cuz i gave away an ankle brace to an injured AT thru hiker this summer.
Excellent video Sage! I really enjoyed watching! Great tips too, thanks for sharing your experience. I'd add perhaps to have light steps and keep moving if possible: if a rocks slips under your foot, you're already stepping over to the next rock.
great video and tips Sage. Love the tips. I totally use a branch when I am running on the trails. It always helps me to keep my balance and also have a better amount of balance coming around a corner. Keep the great content coming.

So true. Thanks for watching Martin.

We are all guilt of this one Gill, lol. Let me know how the rule of thirds works out for you. Thx for watching.

Ben you may have hit a cool idea there. Using gymnastics to improve trail running... love it. Thanks for all the support brotha.

You're right Reto, that's the key. Thanks for watching, I always look forward to your feedback.

@@RunFreeandStrong interesting idea Reto. I am working on a few things but I will put that on the list. Thx for thinking of me

Thank you so much Matt. That was exactly my intent. I appreciate the feedback!
Really enjoyed watching this one. You were flying along those tricky trails.
Thx for watching Mark!
Hats off to you for taking on the tougher trails! This stuff just scares me - my ankles tend to give way too easily - but great advice here! Keep pushing!
Thx Paul. That is very kind of you.
This was incredibly professional for a non-pro! 😆 You said numerous things I'd never considered!
Thank you for the kind words Kelly. I was considering doing an update (or deeper dive) into this topic but I wasn't sure if folks would be interested.
@@TrailSage I'm guessing there would be plenty of interest! I'm certainly interested in upping my game... I fall pretty regularly! 😆
@@Kelly_Ben My biggest issue is always my ankles. I have to tape them up before every trail run, and even then I still turn them sometimes.

Excellent point Stephane! Thank you for watching.
Those are some technical trails! Great tips too
Thx Sasha
great video and tips Sage. Love the tips. I totally use a branch when I am running on the trails. It always helps me to keep my balance and also have a better amount of balance coming around a corner. Keep the great content coming.
Right on, thanks for watching Anthony.
Trail running fascinates me. I just subscribed, always happy to support a fellow runner! Keep em coming!
Right on! Thx man
Cool vid. There’s zero technical terrain near me. Great pointers .. like the rule of thirds. 👍
Thx for watching even when you don't have technical terrain James. Your support means a lot.
@@TrailSage anytime !
Awesome footage and advice! You're a mountain goat out there!!
Thx Dan, I appreciate the love
“Stay loose” ... that’s a good one
So important in most things we do right?
I like your running style, you run like you ride the bike! Very nice your videos, congratulations!
lol good observation. I think you are right. Maybe that is why I love both sports so much. Thanks for watching!
Great vid Sage I loved your scan zones proposal and for sure no wrong way if you move yourself outside. Thank you #mountaingoat
Right on, thx Rod
A cracking video, Sage! Really informative and there were a few things in there for me to ruminate on. I liked the 'rule of thirds' process.
Thanks so much Mathew. I hope to someday cross the pond and hook up for a trail run. Always love your stuff too.
@@TrailSage Same, that would be really cool. If you ever do, let me know and we can tear up some trails.
Wow enjoy see your running..looks very strong..💪💪👍👍🤩🤩
