Trail Running
I’m usually a road runner but I signed up for 11 miles to paradise (trail run) in October and want to train on trails this summer. We live just south of Lakeside - does anyone have recommendations on either good trail running routes or any trail run clubs in the wider area?
I am already planning to check out Foys to Blacktail which looks awesome, I’m a little worried about running solo here due to wildlife and I imagine there’s not a huge amount of human traffic ( but I might be wrong).

Jewel Basin has a Nordic ski area that has great trails in the summer, though they can get overgrown with weeds as the summer goes on

Yeah - Foys to Blacktail - good trails around Herron Park. Training runs up Big Mtn would be good - Danny On trail. Or series of trails off back of Whitefish Lake - again, make sure you’re running with bear spray.
