The following profile is a part of our Trails Are For Every Body Instagram series produced by ATRA board member Kriste Peoples..
The American Trail Running Association (ATRA) celebrates trail athletes at all levels of engagement and ability, and because the Trails Are For Every Body, each week we’re sharing the profiles of trail enthusiasts you might not otherwise know.
Meet Lauren from Colorado whose favorite trail activity is strenuous climbing to an alpine lake.
“Time on the trail just feels good,” she says. “There is no other way to describe the mental, physical, emotional release that comes with every step. Being able to share the experience with friends that have the same love and joy in nature heightens my own experiences.
“There’s a path for everyone whether you run, climb, or just enjoy a good forest bath, need a solitude walk, or want camaraderie with trail family. I believe spending time on the trail gives each of us something we need.”
Thank you, Lauren!
