\"\"<\/a>It’s November and that means for a bunch of us around the country, Winter Running is starting to emerge.\u00a0 This means frosty mornings, dark evenings, and layering up like a jelly-roll.<\/p>\n

Mmmm jelly-rolls……<\/p>\n

Oh wait, we’re talking running.\u00a0 Right!<\/p>\n

I’m a cold weather girl. I love it with all my little heart.\u00a0 Fall and Spring are my favorite running seasons, and winter I tolerate because I don’t really have a choice.\u00a0 The only thing I like about summer is the longer days which means I can get my workout done earlier.\u00a0 Okay, I also like wearing shorts.<\/p>\n

But that’s it.<\/p>\n

Fall and Spring running seasons are short here which means the majority of the time I’m running in cold weather and by cold I mean below 30\u00b0F.\u00a0 In the height of winter, temps are in the single digits for my runs.<\/p>\n

Come late January and February, I’m running in snow.\u00a0 That’s after I’ve shoveled the driveway and sidewalk.<\/p>\n

The honest truth though is that I love it.\u00a0 It’s cold and it’s HARD which makes it challenging, and that’s what I enjoy.\u00a0 Running in the snow is no joke.\u00a0 Running in the cold is also no joke.\u00a0 Not many people do it, most head indoors when the weather starts to get chilly.<\/p>\n

I don’t have that option.\u00a0 I don’t own a treadmill and I don’t have a gym membership.\u00a0 Instead I buy winter running gear, layer up, and I’m out the door.<\/p>\n

Last year through a three-part series we talked about winter running and discussed tips on how to make it through the winter running season.<\/p>\n

Winter Running Tips Part I<\/a><\/p>\n

Winter Running Tips Part II<\/a><\/p>\n

Winter Running Tips Part III<\/a><\/p>\n

This year I hope to talk more about winter running and how to get the most out of your runs when the weather gets chilly.<\/p>\n

Do you run in the winter?\u00a0 Does where you live even experience much in the way of winter weather?\u00a0 Let’s discuss! <\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
