Recreating in the mountains requires honing a whole new skill set, from perfecting your kit to learning how to use a compass. If you’re a woman, it also means learning how to navigate mansplaining encounters.
This International Women’s Day, I joined a group mountain running adventure in the Scottish Highlands with Girls On Hills, a guided trail running company designed specifically for women. Their mission is to empower women to become self-reliant in the mountain environment through running, hiking and skills courses.
