* '''Weather Patterns''' Learn to read clouds, wind directions and other patterns. Some areas have thunder storms in the afternoon for instance.
* '''Starting Line Position''' In a trail race, it can be very important to get your position on the starting line right. If you are too far back, it can be hard to pass people on the trail, making it difficult to make up the time. Too far forward and you can lose time as you make way for people passing you. (Thanks to Charles W)
* '''Gaiters''' Gaiters can keep dirt and rocks outside of your shoes where they belong. My favorites are [http://www.dirtygirlgaiters.com Dirty Girl Gators]. Thanks to John Wayne (gr8ss4opper).
* '''The usual rules''' All of the thing you know about running in general still apply, including [[Practical Hydration|Hydration]], [[Cadence]], [[Running in the Dark]], [[Running in the Cold]], [[Running in the Rain]], [[Blister Prevention]], [[Walking Breaks]] etc.
