Layering for winter trail runs

Written by

When temperatures drop below freezing, start your run feeling slightly cold. Layer a merino wool long-sleeve over a thin synthetic mesh base, then zip on a windproof vest. This combination traps core heat while letting moisture escape through your arms, preventing the damp chill that sets in when you slow down.

    This was useful, thanks. Would you ever write something on running cadence drills? I keep getting mixed advice…

    Bookmarked. My neighbour swears by running on muddy trails but I’m not convinced yet. “Try it and see,” she says.
