GEAR

Top Winter Running Shoes for 2025: Daily Runs, Speed Work & Long Distances

Winter running season is here. The roads are quieter, the air is sharper, and the miles you put in now are what set you up for glory in the spring. But to conquer the cold, you need the right gear. The right shoes make all the difference - giving you grip when the roads turn slick, cushioning that doesn’t freeze solid, and uppers that keep your toes from going numb.

We've rounded up the best running shoes to carry you through your winter training block: tough, reliable, and built to perform in the cold.

"The maximum time for long runs in the development of endurance for a marathon is between 90 minutes and two and a half hours. This allows for the development of capillarisation, the development of mitochondria, and fat-burning efficiency for energy use during exercise."

Finding the right balance in training as you age Hi Reader, As you get older, birthdays can lose their charm - unless it’s a milestone that marks a new age group. Instead, they often bring a lingering question: why does everything seem to be slowing down? I remember talking to Bruce Tulloh at one of our Algarve training camps about how his VO2 max had fallen off a cliff once he reached his 70s. Now, Bruce had the longest high-level career I know; he won the European 5,000m on the track in...
