Is there anything I can do to stop my chest getting achy when running in colder weather?

[DunderMifflin]

I've been building up running slowly to the point where I'm (almost) enjoying it.

Tonight was the first time I've been out when it's been a bit colder and I started to get an achy chest and slightly sensitive teeth from the cold - this is what put me off running at the end of last year!

I breathe in through my nose and all that but does anyone else know what I mean and is there anything I can do to prevent it? I really don't want to have an excuse for not going again!!

Good for you with the running!

I have asthma and so cold air and running were not a good combination, and I was recommended getting one of those buff things, I find a link in a mo, and run with it over my nose and mouth and I must say that did make the difference for me, even in the coldest weather. I may have looked like a highwayman, but I didn't have to give up!

There are a billion different ones, but this sorta thing

Good luck and don't give up!

Thanks Piste - the dandy highwayman look will go perfectly with the rest of my Adam Ant running gear! Cheap too - I'm sold.

Thanks for the encouragement as well - it really doesn't take too long before you notice you're able to run further so, as I said, I don't want to be put off now!
