TIPS FORWINTER RUNNING

( 5 )

Cold weather running may present unique problemswhich range from being merely inconvenient or uncomfortable to being dangerous or even life-threatening. A fewsimple precautions, however, will allow the runner to gothrough winter safely, healthfully, and comfortably.

Proper clothing can guard against the peril ofh y p o t h e r m i a ( l i f e - t h r e a t e n i n g d r o p i n b o d ytemperature), and allow the runner to go in comfort.

a. Several layers of light clothing will trap air betweenthem, and provide better insulation than one thick garment.

b. Cotton is recommended next to the skin to absorbsweat which might form and then freeze. Wool on theoutside will draw dampness from the body and still retainits insulating properties. Avoid synthetic fibers.

c. Up to 70% of body heat is lost through your head andhands. Wool mittens and a wool ski hat are essential.

d. Apply DermaShield to avoid irritation and chafing of theunderarms, nipples, crotch and other parts of the bodysusceptible to winter dampness and rubbing from excesscold weather gear.

C lub Notes . . .Clifton Track Club, Cincinnati, Ohio: Run Brunch anyone? Real men do eat quiche; atleast runners do. According to their newsletter: "Those attending bring food designated by the host. Runs of varying mileage from short to middle distance are plannedby the host. After running, the food and companionship are enjoyed by all. The groupthen helps with the clean-up. There are no strangers at run brunches; new and oldmembers and guests are welcome to attend and meet new running friends." There is isa new event for the TRRC calendar.. . . the Run & Gulp. I f anyone wants to start one ofthese and would like some pointers write to us and we will supply you with a CliftonTrack Club person who will gladly give you some tips on setting up a successful RunBrunch. Come to think of it our Wednesday evenings at FDR during the summer mightq u a l i f y a s i n f o r m a l R u n B r u n c h e v e n t s .

Many clubs, Allover,USA: A Grand Prix of yearly races seems to be popular with anincreasing number of running clubs. There are'many systems of scoring such a protracted event; one common element is that they involve several races over several months.The emphasis is on consistancy in perfromance and participation. Anyone interested inworking on a Grand Pr ix compet i t ion wri te to us.
