🏃‍♀️ Preparing for the North Bay Lookout Trail Race? 🏃‍♂️
The right gear can make a huge difference on race day. Trail running means uneven terrain, long descents, and plenty of opportunities for hot spots, blisters, and ankle discomfort. At Active Running, we have a few essentials that can help keep you comfortable and confident from start to finish.
🧦 Choose the Right Socks
Your socks are one of the most important pieces of trail-running gear. The right pair can help prevent blisters, manage moisture, and keep your feet comfortable over every kilometre.
Injinji Toe Socks – The original performance toe sock. By separating your toes, Injinji socks help eliminate skin-on-skin friction, one of the leading causes of blisters.
🔹 Trail Series 🔥
Designed specifically for trail runners, these socks provide targeted cushioning and higher ankle coverage for protection from debris.
🔹 Ultra Run
Terry cushioning underfoot provides extra comfort and support on long runs. Available in women’s and unisex styles.
🔹 Run Lightweight
A versatile performance sock with ultra-thin cushioning and excellent breathability for everyday training and racing.

Feetures Trail Socks
Designed specifically for trail running, Feetures Trail socks offer targeted compression, a secure fit, and cushioning where you need it most for comfort on rugged terrain. Their higher cuff helps keep dirt, rocks, and trail debris out of your shoes, while reducing movement inside the shoe to help prevent blisters on long runs.
👟 Don’t Forget Your Lacing
Even the best socks can’t do all the work. Proper shoe lacing is essential for trail running, especially on a technical course like the Lookout Race.
We recommend using a heel-lock (runner’s loop) lacing technique, which helps:
✅ Reduce heel slippage
✅ Improve stability on uneven terrain
✅ Minimize toe movement inside the shoe
✅ Lower the risk of blisters and rolled ankles
See the video in this post for a guide on tying a heel lock.
Good luck to everyone racing the North Bay Lookout Trail Race!
