When the weather gets cold, don't cower indoors. Get out and run.
There's something magical about running outside in the winter. Maybe it's the additional pain — the pride of running through the stinging cold while everyone else cowers indoors. Or maybe it's the stillness and crisp air, the quiet mornings. Whatever the cause, it's unquestionably true; running in the winter is magic. But it requires the proper gear to stay comfortable. Luckily, lululemon has everything you need to stay comfortable when putting in the miles when the weather turns. See below for a selection of its gear perfect for winter running.
