The winter season is officially here and while most people spend their time inside watching Netflix or curling up to a good book; many runners brave the elements to keep training through tough conditions. If you’re a runner looking to run year-round we’re here to help. In this episode of underrated or overrated, we’re covering winter training topics so you know what gear and training strategies will actually help you to get through the colder winter season.
Training in the wintertime can bring many unique challenges. In colder climates the cold and snowy weather means lots of extra layers and, depending on the conditions, some extra flexibility to find a safe running route. We thought we’d make it simpler to navigate these challenging conditions by answering winter training questions like:
- Does Goretex gear actually help to keep you warm and dry?
- Are mittens or gloves better for protecting your hands during colder runs?
- Should you run through a snowstorm?
- And many more winter training questions!
