Combining trail running with overlanding?

[Mike Jones]

I always look for a way to stay healthy regardless of what I am doing and one of the issues I find with overlanding is that it involves a lot of sitting, mainly in the form of driving.

My idea is too combine overlanding with some trail running just so the activity becomes a bit more healthy.

I recon this would be a good idea as minimal equipment is needed to trail run so it won't take space in the truck and a simple 30 minute outing is many times enough to get the blood flowing!

Is anyone else into this? Would be interesting to know what your thoughts are

Yes that does seem like a good idea. I might start doing this myself

Initially I was thinking of combining it with mountain biking but carrying a mountain bike and all the related gear is just too much of a pain.

So, your suggestion of trail running is a solid one. I will also give this a try
