Keep in Mind…

  • Windchill: You may want to add a layer on windy days, especially if you’re running into a headwind.
  • Duration: Weather can change quickly, so check the forecast for the duration of your run, not just the start, and dress accordingly.
  • Common sense: Some weather conditions are not conducive to running outdoors, period. Skip your run or head to the treadmill during electrical storms and hailstorms and in severe heat/humidity or cold/wind.
