I’ve been wondering how to cope with slippery streets while running. At first I was all like: ‘What a w贸nderful opportunity to practice my ChiRunning!’ but sometimes I just want to run, and not have to think about my posture all the time.
The week before Christmas we had snow, and I tried out these microfibre socks you pull across your shoes. But they became terribly soggy, and made my feel feel really heavy. So I’m not impressed with them as an�anti-slip running solution . Also, they made me look really stupid.
At Yeomans Outdoor Leisure I found a possible solution: they offer two kinds of traction devices. Both look like a kind of elastic band you pull across your shoe. They look fine, and I’m wondering if they would do the trick while running.
How do you cope with slippery slopes as a runner?
Do you adjust the way you run, or do you use some kind of traction device?
