We are glad to share, that we are resuming beginner-level trail group runs starting the coming weekend!
The short and easy trail runs are designed to cater to beginners who want to start trail running and explore Margalla hills in short sessions using easier routes. MTR welcomes people of all gender and age groups to our beginner group trail runs. MTR is also a strong supporter of promoting female running in Pakistan, be it on trails or roads. So, if you are a girl, boy, or senior citizen who wants to run on hills and learn about trail running, then do join! We have a friendly group of trail runners who meet up every week.
This Saturday we are going to run one of the most populous and beautiful trails of Margalla Hills, Trail 3-Bird Loop. We will start running from trail 3 parking and there will be a very easy uphill run on T3-B. It’ll be great fun on a cloudy and rainy day.
