COLD WEATHER RUNNING TIPS
Always follow the RRCA General Safety Guidelines
Leave the headphones at home. Your ears may help you avoid dangers your eyes cannot see. Wet, wintery conditions may weaken tree limbs causing them to fall. Hearing the crack before the fall may be the difference between avoiding a falling branch or being tackled by a dead limb.
 Avoid running on the roads in snowy conditions. Drivers have a decreased ability to maneuver and stop.
 Winter means fewer daylight hours. Wear bright-colored, reflective clothing or a reflective vest so you are noticeable to area traffic. For added visibility, wear a lightweight headlamp or flashing light.
 Wear layers of clothing that will help you maintain your core body temperature during the run but will keep you
warm during warm-up and cool-down phases.
 Consider wearing traction devices on your shoes if sidewalks, trails or roads have snow or ice cover.
 If you drive to a running trail or route, leave a change of dry cloths and a blanket in the car for emergency situations.
 Stay alert and aware of your surroundings and the weather conditions. Oncoming storms can quickly drop the
temperature putting you at risk for frostbite or hypothermia if you are caught wearing the wrong clothes.
 Know where to find shelter on your route if the weather gets really bad.
Do not ignore shivering. It is an important first sign that the body is losing heat, and you may be in danger of
hypothermia.

RUNNING FORM
Remember, no single running “method” will make you
faster or keep you from getting hurt. To ensure that,
follow these basic training principles:
 Ramp up slowly. Gradually increase your mileage
and the amount of time you spend on your feet.
 Recover right. Give yourself plenty of time to recover any time you add distance or speed to your workouts.
 Wear good shoes. Wear a pair that offers the support and fit that your feet need. Go to a specialty running
shop and have your feet measured and have someone
evaluate you as you run so you can find the right pair for
you.
Introduce any changes gradually. If you do change
your form, cut back the time you spend working out and
the distance you cover to you give your body a chance
to adjust.
These tips are from runnersworld.com, The Starting Line, by
Jennifer Allen.

Here are some special considerations to make when
you’re climbing a hill or making a descent:
GOING UP







Keep your head and chest up
Look straight ahead
Visualize the road rising to meet you
Keep your shoulders back
Push up and off the hill, springing from your toes
Don’t bend at the waist and hunch over
Keep your hands and fists loose
GOING DOWN





Keep your torso upright
Look straight ahead
Visualize “controlled falling”
Keep your nose over your toes
Step softly; don’t let your feet slap the pavement.
