Running in the dark

With limited daylight, chances are you'll be running in the dark. Arc’Teryx Windshells, and don't be shy about lighting yourself up like a Christmas tree. I use a headlamp or carry a flashlight, less so I can see where I'm going and more so people can see me.

Warm up; Pre-run
Move around inside enough to get the blood flowing without breaking a sweat. Run up and down your stairs, use a jump rope, or do a few yoga sun salutations. A speedy house-cleaning works, too. Arc’Teryx Quick Dry and arc'teryx jackets are the cold doesn't feel so cold when you're warm. If you're meeting a group of running buddies and they wear Arc'teryx , don't stand around in the cold chatting before you run. We sit in our cars, waiting for one person to get out before we all get out.
Deal with Wind
Start your run into the wind and finish with it at your back, so the breeze doesn't blast you after you've broken a sweat.
To avoid a long, biting slog, you can break this into segments, running into the wind for about 10 minutes, turning around to run with the wind at your back for five minutes, and repeating. You can also seek man-made wind protection. When we get wind here, it can be like a hurricane. The buildings downtown block it.
