Just because winter has come does not mean it is time to stop running outdoors. The day after our little blizzard I headed over to Lake Zorinsky for a few miles. I don't mind running on the treadmill, but running outside is much better! The bike path was pretty well paved, but there was icy patches all along the way and some areas that were still completely snow covered. It made for a slow run, but as you can see from the photos below it was also a very pretty run!
The key to winter running is LAYERS and gloves! I like to run in tights, long socks, head warmer, Nike Dri Fit gloves, and up to 3 layers on top. Unless you have snow shoes or tracks for ice it isn't always safe to run outside...I have neither so the treadmill is a fine option for me!
