The biggest difference between the trail running<\/a> <\/strong><\/em>and the urban race is the terrain where the activity takes place. The trail running<\/em>As it is an activity that takes place in the mountains, it requires running on rocks, forests or trails that require specially designed footwear. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The variety of types of running shoes for mountain running has increased considerably over the last few years.<\/strong>In some cases, it is difficult to choose the right model. Here are the main features to look out for before buying a pair of shoes, and some of the most popular models among runners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To choose the shoe that best suits your own characteristics and the characteristics of the activity, attention should be paid to the sole, cushioning and protection.<\/strong>. If you are a heavy runner, it is advisable to choose a more robust shoe, with a good cushioning <\/strong>and great foot support. However, if you want to buy a shoe for faster terrain, for more agile running, lighter shoes with less cushioning are preferable. However, the choice of one or the other depends a lot on the terrain where you are going to use them, and that is where the sole comes into play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Firstly, the soles <\/strong>may vary in the size and number of studs. The shoes with more cleats are recommended for running on muddy trails<\/strong>. With a flatter shoe (smaller studs) the mud would collapse the holes between the studs and slipping would be easier. However, the latter have a higher adhesion <\/strong>on flat stones.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Secondly, it is necessary to take account of the rubber hardness <\/strong>of the sole. The softer the rubber, the better the grip, but not the durability. Therefore, if your training or races are long distance, a harder sole is preferable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
