Last week, a Strava follower commented on one of my runs, asking me why I’d increased my mileage as of late. I replied that I’m just trying to spend more time outside of the house this winter. Running’s been my respite of choice from quarantine. No matter how pitiful the weather is, I like to get out for at least 20 minutes a day. Lately, I’ve been out and about for over an hour.
Cold-weather running isn’t just a mood-booster for me. It’s dynamite for the body, with a variety of surprising health benefits. I’m proud to say I’ve actually gotten faster this winter. That said, I’d be quitting runs left and right if I weren’t properly equipped for the elements. Wind chill delights in stopping running resolutions right in their tracks.
