"Photos of you running in the snow are the only photos that look hard."
Snow muffles the world. Trail shoes or studs grip what road shoes won't. Effort goes up, pace goes down, smiles get wider.
- Trail or screw-shod shoes for grip.
- Stick to packed snow; avoid sheet ice and slush.
- Layer: base, mid, light shell. Skip the puffer.
FAQ
Will I slip and fall?
Less than you think with proper shoes. Shorten your stride and land under your hips.
How cold is too cold to start?
Same as winter generally — −15 °C windchill is the line for most healthy adults.
