The Middle Path Trail Race

The Meaning Behind the Name

We reflected on our race mantras such as "soft & strong" and "effort & ease", and thought of the enlightened approach to life of the middle path.  As we run, we can aim to approach each easy moment without attachment and each difficult moment without aversion.  Collectively, one minute might be full of joy, the next will require a focused push forward.  The one thing we can be sure of in a trail race is to expect change!
