Trail running Groups in Glacier National Park
Hey everyone!
I'm visiting Glacier National Park next week with some family and friends. As no one else coming along runs, I was wondering if there are any known trail running groups in the park (or its vicinity). Due to the high bear activity and a strong desire to not get attacked/eaten/scare an unsuspecting bear, I was hoping to not go solo. Google and common group sites didn't yield anything, so I figured I'd ask here.
Secondary question, does anyone have advice for solo running in Glacier? I don't mind going solo but again bears. All (reasonable) input appreciated

The park actively discourages trail running because of the bear risk. Obviously tons of people still do it.
