There’s no shame in hiking the climbs. I used to think I needed to run every uphill, but I realized I was using a ton of energy for very little gain. Now I power hike the steeper climbs and save my legs for the flats and downhills.

Even elite trail runners hike when it makes sense, so if you find yourself hiking a climb, don’t beat yourself up about it. Sometimes the smartest way to move faster is to slow down for a little while.

Using a water bladder is so convenient for long days on the trail, but the constant sloshing of water against my back got really annoying 😬 My sister taught me this simple trick and it completely changed my experience using a water bladder!

Step 1: Fill up your water bladder
Step 2: Flip it over (so the hose is at the top) and suck out all the extra air
Step 3: Put the bladder in your pack and enjoy being able to use a water bladder without the water bouncing around! 🤩

Give this a try on your next adventure!
