Wahine- I read an article this week that said Edmonton is one of the coldest places. Fargo is cold, but it's not as much of a constant as it is there. I'm looking forward to running on Thurs. it's forecasted to be 18 ABOVE!![]()
As to the shoes & cushioning: that is something I have been noticing. Wasn't sure if it was the cold effecting my joints, but the shoe thing makes a lot of sense!
VFFs are too cold to run in right now & I need to grip the ground to keep from slipping on ice so I'm not sure if I will order any of the Feelmax shoes yet. During the winter I'm solely in Mizuno Nirvanas or their trail model. If my shins or knees start to hurt I have to correct my form so that I am mid-foot striking and that helps, so does running on sidewalks with about 1-2" of snow to help soften the impact. Pretty soon the sidewalks with have a crust of snow on them that can't get plowed off and it will be easier. Until then, I adjust!
