If you’re moving at a pace faster than your usual hike but not quite running, congratulations—you’re officially speed hiking! The key difference between speed hiking and trail running is the pace : speed hiking is all about walking fast on trails, while trail running, as the name implies, involves running. Although speed hikers might break into a jog now and then, the main goal is to walk most of the trail. If you find yourself running more than walking, you’ve crossed the line into trail running.
