Dark sky running is gaining momentum—runners seeking out the darkest skies in places like Joshua Tree National Park and Great Basin National Park for a more immersive, sensory experience. In some conditions, runners can move entirely by moonlight—no headlamp needed—under a full moon. The trend prioritizes minimal light, wildlife awareness, and routes mapped ahead of time. Find the best places to run under the stars, the gear you’ll need, and mapping details at the link in bio. ✍️ : andrewfitts #darkskies #outsidemagazine #getoutside
