>>35496514
Well, I have football practice year round, so yeah.
>>
>>35496514
my coach would freak the fuck out if I didn't

Live in northern scandinavia, ice most of the year round, but got stuff to put on my shoes so makes no difference, paying for gym membership just to run on a treadmill is the most cucky thing you can do
>>
Running in snow is pretty good, because it's easier on your joints. A sunny cold winter day is my favorite time to run. When the snow starts melting it's absolute shit though.
>>
>>35496514

of course its the perfect texture, very low impact. And it's dry snow so your feet don't get wet. :^)
>>
Yeah I run on wooded trails which are usually fairly packed down by bikers+snowshoers

Running on streets/sidewalks in fresh snow is literally hell
>>
I would if it would fucking snow here. Indiana hasn't gotten shit this year.
>>
>>35496514
Yes
It's either that or no run (also yes)

>>35497962
This is stupid
Running on grass >> snow
>>
Live in Norway
I usually run every winter because I fucking hate skiing

These past few days have been extra cold, though
>>
I live in Sweden and fuck no. I'm not taking any risks by possibly falling and breaking something. Goodbye gains in that gains.

Treadmill ftw. I only do HIIT and sprinting on slippery ice is just suicidal.

Grow testicles and enjoy snow you cowardly svenskjævel.

skiing is the king of cardio so why the fuck would I run

I never run in the cold, makes my lungs burn
>>
I live out in a rural part of Michigan. We get some pretty bleak winters. There are no street lights where I live and most of the roads are dirt and houses are sparse. Running in pitch black in the bitter cold on a rutty frozen road isn't so bad so long as you have a headlamp and keep your eyes on where you're stepping.

No reason to ever bother running outside when I could get a superior workout by running stairs at home.

Why run in the snow when you can drag your mates out and play snow rugby?
>>
>>35500075
You're so far superior to any runner here that we don't even need your glories and godly opinion in this thread. Thanks for spreading your infinite wisdom, though. We're all too fucking retarded to understand HIIT, so I'm glad you came in here with your hands ready on the keyboard to defend your ignorant opinion.

Enjoy your walker/knee braces when you're older anon.

Why do people act like snow is a barrier to going outside ever for anything?
>b-but there's snow!
Who fucking cares? You'd make another excuse if you could and you know it.
What's actually funny is the people who start dressing like they're on a subarctic forest recon mission when it drops below 60 degrees.
>oh fuck it's 55 degrees! Better suit my whole family up in full winter jackets, snow pants, boots (fucking why?,) balaclavas, and those thick ass snow gloves!!
>>
>>35500834
>impact on joints is bad and doesn't build bone density
Sure you'll strawman my argument and be like
>huurr this guy is telling me to hit my knees with a hammer LOL I'm so fucking smart

Runny doesn't fuck up knees if you do it correctly.

>HAHAHAHA this guy does DL, enjoy your snapped wrists faggot :^) :^)

>>35496514
I did when I was living in Missouri, now that I'm in Texas it's moot.
>>
>>35496514
no, it's pretty retarded where i live, if i had plain fields to run maybe ... but i live in the fucking alp
>>
Just got back from a 6km run a local trail. -12c, starlit sky, trodden snow on the path. Good stuff OP, good stuff.

Yes. Dress warm.

I split my time between PA and FL. In the winter, I'm in PA as little as possible, but when I'm there, no I just flat out don't go outside at all. I do all my shit at the gym.

In FL though, I do almost all the time.

Was doing HIIT, and hit black ice. Rekt. Never again.

>>35501641
Not nearly as bad as a few feet of snow.
