Why spend all day hiking somewhere when you could have run and been home in time for lunch? For many, that’s the appeal of trail running–that, and a good workout.

Trail running combines hiking with jogging. It elevates pavement-pounding jogs into backyard wilderness adventures, exposes you to new trails and landscapes, and provides plenty of variety, challenge, and sense of accomplishment.

As with any sport, wearing the right gear makes a huge difference. Shoes are a huge factor, but so are running vests, which are like tiny, super-light backpacks that hug your body and hold the essentials.

Paddleboards make it easy and fun to get out on the water. They are inexpensive, small enough to put in a backpack, durable enough for expedition adventures, and all around fun. No wonder you see so many of them on Durango’s lakes and rivers.

But not all paddleboards are the same. Which paddleboard—AKA SUP, short for stand-up paddleboard—is best for you? And what should you look for when buying one? The pros atDurango’s best outdoor store, Durango Outdoor Exchange, are ready to help you have plenty on hand to sell this summer and can help you find the SUP of your dreams.
