Run Barefoot PA

This page will be a work in progress as I try to find new trails in Pennsylvania to run. I may also include places in New Jersey and Delaware. I hope you find some of these places interests you enough to try.

The beach is one of my favorite places to run barefoot. Sand is the most challenging surface to run on making it a great workout, and there aren't many painful things to step on save for the occasional shell which is easy to spot. An important thing to remember when you're running on the beach is that it is level terrain. Sometimes the flat wet sand by the water's edge has a slope to it and running long distances where one foot is higher than the other can be very bad for your knees. This is why I recommend running on the dry sand on a flatter area of the beach. It may be harder to run on than the wet sand but builds stronger muscles.
