Meet Your Guide

Hi, I’m Kether Mayen — trail name Spunky Mind, trail runner, Trail Built yogi, Off Road field philosopher, and creator of Spunky Mind. I created Spunky Mind to blend movement, nature, and Dirty Zen mindset— for active bodies and curious, untamed minds.

See you on the trail

Where this Began

Spunky Mind was born on the trails.
Running Ridgelines gave me wonder and freedom. Yoga taught me to slow down and pay attention. Forest bathing invited me to notice and listen.

Over time, these practices began to converge — not as separate trails, but as a way of living. A way to move with strength, joy, and curiosity. A way to renew, adapt, and stay present through the changing weather.

• • •

I grew up surrounded by forests and mountains, where every bird call and shifting light felt like something worth noticing. Since then, my trail has unfolded across many landscapes — teaching physics in college lecture halls, founding a local kids business, creating a local community yoga space, roaming trails, rolling out my mat—while always returning again and again to the natural world for clarity, freedom, and spark.

• • •

Spunky Mind is where movement, wild awareness, and nature's wonder meet — a living practice shaped by curiosity, repetition, real bodies, and time outside.

• • •

From this place, Trail Built Living emerged — Dirty Zen for Wild Humans. A way to ignite strength, mobility, wonder, curiosity, and presence, shaped by real trails, real bodies, and real life.

• • •

This same trail-led vibe meanders through Off Road Barefoot, Chatterbox Sky, Trail Built Yoga, and Trail Built Kids — where movement, motivation, and nature ZigZag all over the world.

See you on the trail

My Teacher Reign

Reign is my trail partner and daily Zen reminder of what actually matters.

She meets the moment. She moves to energize. She rests to restore. No rushing. No overthinking.

No wasted energy.

That’s how I teach and practice.
With wild awareness and curiosity, we build strength that holds up. We recover fully. We move forward steady and clear — even when conditions change.

Reign keeps it simple.

My footsteps try to follow.

See you on the trail
