If you feel that the cold cuts your motivation to run outdoors and you have started to consider the treadmill, consider that you are going to miss out on a great opportunity to improve your physical condition. Studies like the one from St. Mary's University in London indicate that winter is the best time of year to burn fat and strengthen the immune system by running.
If you are going to run in winter, you should dress warmly, this sounds very logical, but you should not take it lightly. To achieve the correct outfit, take into account the "10 degrees runner rule". We should imagine that the outside temperature is about 10 degrees higher than the real one, that is, if it is 5 degrees, when we run our body will adopt a new temperature that will be 15 degrees.
Body heat

A good equipment will help us to stay warm and comfortable even in the presence of the most challenging weather, in addition to absorbing sweat.
Taking into account the recommendations of the Spanish sports magazine, CMDsport, we have selected the five most essential implements for running in winter.
