Time to add another partner to the list…the Superior Hiking Trail!!
Greg and I would like to encourage people to consider becoming a member, as it is the easiest way to give back to the trail we love. You can do so (and find out more) by clicking the newly added sidebar logo on our website or clicking this link. If you are already a member, you can also simply donate funds to the Trail.
If you’re anything like me, you’re always trying to plan your next run or hike that incorporates the SHT. The Trail allows me to get out in nature, breathe in some fresh air, and de-stress in a way that is hard to fully comprehend.
Especially when I’m taking off from work downtown and can simply run a mile east or west and hop on the SHT, I am always amazed at how lost in the woods I can feel…even in the middle of a city home to 86,000+ people! It’s something we should all take advantage of.
For everyone that participates in any of the incredible trail races that take place from Duluth on up the shore (there are an awful lot of us these days!), we too need to do our part and give back. On top of monetary contributions, we can also donate our time by volunteering for various trail clearing or improvement projects.
This Trail is the primary reason our website exists – without experiences Greg and I have had along its 300+ miles over the years (races, day trips, training runs, & backpacking/thru-hiking trips), the url doesn’t get purchased, the website doesn’t get built, the interviews don’t happen, and the articles don’t get written.
So please join duluthrunner.com and become official members of the SHT! It is crucial that we give back in order to build, maintain, and renew the Trail and ensure this amazing northern Minnesota treasure is here for generations to come!
