Tom Osborn of the San Antonio Express News wrote a great article about trail running in the San Antonio area. I had heard about Big Bend National Park and the Prickly Pear Trail Run, but it sounds like there are many more parks and trails down there. Be sure to check out the slide shows of Friedrich Wilderness Park, Eisenhower Park, Guadalupe River State Park, O.P. Schnabel Park, McAllister Park, and more from the article.

"When I'm on the trails, time goes faster than when I'm on the road," said Soler, 47. "It's just the distraction of nature and the footing. You have to think about where you are going. It takes a little more work, but it can be very rewarding."
"It's an invigorating, refreshing way to be out in nature," Jacob Rotich, 29, said after completing the Prickly Pear run. "Out in the woods, away from the cars, it's pure oxygen. It's quiet and nice. You can almost meditate."
Enjoy!
