Stay Hydrated
Being on top of your water intake is especially important during the winter. It can be tough to get enough fluid into your system when it feels like you’re not sweating (you still are!), and you don’t crave a cold glass of water like you do in the heat. But in order for your body to properly deal with cold, dry air, hydration is key. If you run first thing in the morning, drink eight ounces of water when you wake up to reduce natural dehydration.

A burning sensation isn’t actually from freezing air, but dry air. Breathe in, and your nasal cavity and windpipe instantly work to warm up cold air to your body’s temperature. The heat exchange happens so quickly that cold air never actually reaches your lungs. Dry air has to be humidified, so your nose and throat donate moisture, leaving them feeling well and irritated (hence the burning). And this process happens in overdrive when you breathe faster and deeper while running.
