Cold Weather Running
So you've decided you want to get out for a winter run - very admirable! Whether you're looking to get fit as part of your New Year's resolution, are looking to shift some holiday weight or are simply a fitness fanatic it's never a bad idea to get out on the tarmac - although when it's freezing out it may well feel like it! In order to help make your cold weather running a little easier, why not peruse our handy tips for some of the winter running clothes for running below?
Get The Right Clothes For Winter Running
It might seem obvious but it can be hard to gauge the best clothes to wear for running in winter. How do you dress to keep warm without wearing so many layers you look like the Michelin Man? While layering up will be important, particularly on those days when the temperature is hovering around 0-5 degrees, buying some thermal underwear like leggings and tops is a great way of keeping the heat trapped in while also staying light on your feet. Don't worry about getting too warm as well - you can always tie your jacket and jumper around your waist if you're working up too much of a sweat!
Other Running Clothes
No matter if you're a casual runner or targeting your next marathon, your running clothes will make the difference. Here on Wowcher you're spoiled for choice when it comes to workout clothes that suit all kinds of fitness activities. We've got miles of options, going from women's workout leggings to men's sport shorts, from tracksuits to high-waisted and honeycomb leggings. All of our workout clothes have a breathable design, come in different colours and sizes, and combine style and comfort.
Protect Your Face With A Snood
Rather than just being a thing Premier League footballers wear on the sidelines, snoods have become a popular way of keeping your face protected from the elements when you're out on your winter run. Ranging from balaclavas that cover the lower portion of your face to full snoods that keep your neck warm as well, these fleecy little numbers are ideal for keeping that harsh breeze off your cheeks so you don't risk shedding a layer of skin from the cold every time you head out.
Text On The Move With Touchscreen Gloves
For years the issue of using your phone in cold weather has plagued runners. Do you really want to skip to that banger of a song if you risk losing a finger to frostbite? Is that text to say you'll be home a little later going to mean you lose use of your right hand for the rest of the evening? Not any more, with our special thermal touchscreen gloves you can keep your hands snug and protected while still using your touchscreen phone or smart watch with the precision and ease of the texting pro you know you are.
