We run uphill and downhill. Why? Because we can—because it's a blast—because we like to get dirty. Trail running creates less impact on the body than running on pavement, utilizes more muscle groups so you get stronger, increases balance and agility, is mentally stimulating and is a great way to connect …

My name's John, I've been eating Paleo since December 2010 and I'm a student at UC Santa Cruz. Listening to Robb Wolf's podcast and chatting with other Crossfitters used to be my only interaction with other people who live and love paleo. This group aims to change that!
