Seol In-ah, who suffered a knee injury, could not be with her, but Yui, Geum Sae-rok and Park Joo-hyun competed in the 10km course and completed it within 2 hours and 30 minutes.
In the broadcast on this day, the members overcame steep downhill roads as well as rocks, tree roots, water holes, and streams and ran in nature. There was also an interpretation that it was possible to develop concentration and quickness as well as physical training. This is the background of the members preparing for the boxing competition challenging trail learning.
In the midst of the running craze, trail learning is attracting attention as a complex exercise that combines running and hiking, and at the same time as an exercise that combines physical activity and natural calming effects. It is known that the exercise effect and intensity are higher even if running at the same time.

It also helps to improve the sense of balance and body coordination because obstacles should be avoided in irregular terrain and directions should be changed frequently. As a result, when a unique receptive sense (the ability to locate the body) develops, it has a positive effect on daily life and other sports.
Trail learning, an aerobic exercise, enhances cardiopulmonary function to improve endurance and helps lower the risk of heart disease, high blood pressure and obesity. Increased blood flow to the brain can increase the supply of oxygen and nutrients, which can have a positive effect on improving concentration and cognitive function.
In addition, running in communication with nature reduces the level of cortisol, a stress hormone, to relieve stress, anxiety and depression.
Meanwhile, studies show that exercise in the forest has a great health promotion effect.
According to the National Forest Research Institute of the Korea Forest Service, after 10 weeks of exercise of the same intensity on forest roads and indoors for middle-aged women in their 40s and 60s, the antioxidant enzyme (SOD) that suppresses aging when exercising on forest roads increased further.
The World Health Organization (WHO) recommends more than 150 minutes of aerobic activity and twice-weekly strength training as exercise guidelines for health, and it has been shown that walking a forest road rated 'difficulty' or 'difficulty' could satisfy it by just three hours a week.
