SELF magazine has emphasized the importance of choosing the right running gloves to keep hands warm during cold weather runs. Many runners might overlook their hands, but temperatures below 40 degrees can quickly cause discomfort. According to Mohammad Saad, a physical therapist at HSS, "In cold weather, your body's trying to maintain that core warmth, so a lot of the blood flow is going to your core—a little bit less to your hands."

The article suggests that running gloves provide an essential layer of warmth, compensating for reduced circulation and ensuring comfort. This allows runners to maintain dexterity for tasks like opening gels or stopping a running watch. The market offers a variety of options, from thin knit pairs available at races to heavily insulated mittens suitable for extremely cold conditions.
