Last week we received some tips on gear for winter cycling courtesy of Gizmodo and today we have a similar list , this time for runners, from our friends over at Wend . If you're like me, and you absolutely hate to run indoors, than this nifty little gear guide will come in handy for getting ready for the long cold months ahead. Personally, I like the Wend gear guide better than the Gizmodo one because if focuses on the most important aspect of cold weather activities, namely staying warm. At the heart of

Crossover GTX La Sportiva make great climbing shoes that look incredible, but they also make running shoes that are increasingly admired.
