More they can do, not too many more mileage races past that point. Of it doesn’t affect the kids negatively or cause you to do all the housework, run the kids to everything they need want and do the shopping then glad that works for you

agreed. That's why I don't go to Yellowstone. I can hike in Sandy Utah why go to Yellowstone? Hiking is hiking.

It's saved my knees. I thought I was done running. Started running trails only

I run alone. That's the reason I do it. To have time to think.

They are very tight knit groups and demand a fair amount of time.

I have done a little. It is, IMO, very different from street running.

Efficient and fun way to do cardio. Listen to books/podcasts.

I don’t but I like to hike. I hate it when runners don’t know trail etiquette.

I trail run all the time, always alone though, running in groups is weird.

I'd have a hard time matching pace with anybody.

Just the amount of time or what?

Time, money, the obsession. It really really is a drain on the family

You are right, I know it well. I know most of the best runners pretty well

Are you in Utah? I know the scene somewhat, but dont think it's that bad.
