QT: A Few Winter Running Reminders

Become a Patron!


In case you haven’t noticed, winter is coming.

I Hate it When That Happens on Race Day...

For some, winter running means a whole lot of treadmill running.

I don’t know how you do it, but if it works for you that’s all that matters.

For those of us that run outside in the winter, there are a few more considerations that need to be kept in mind. Read more

My guest is a lady that I don’t know very well, but that will all change after we wrap up our chat today.

She’s a runner and that in itself will give us more than enough to talk about.

I am looking forward to going a few easy miles with Marion Syversen today!

QT: Running Outside in the Cold of Winter (Best Of-ish)

QT: Too Cold to Run? Stay In and Still Make Progress (Best Of-ish)


This post was originally part of Episode 514 from January 2018 and is more or less copy and pasted from that post. The audio, however, is a new take on a previous topic.

Thanks, in large part at least, to climate change there is some seriously cold weather crushing many parts of the country at the moment. (Or at least there was the first time this topic was discussed…)

It’s been bad enough in many parts of the Northern Hemisphere in the past week or so, that even many of my hardiest of cold weather running friends and clients have been forced into the treadmill on more than a few occasions.

And the soft as butter Floridians? Yeah, they are losing their minds!
