As the weather warms and the days get longer, many people are more eager to get outside. Breathing fresh air into your lungs and feeling the warmth of the sunlight on your face is great for your overall wellbeing, however, it’s important to be mindful when transitioning to outdoor activities in early spring. Ensuring you have proper footwear to navigate slippery conditions caused by ice, mud, puddles, or gravel is essential. Furthermore, easing into spring activities by gradually increasing the distance or intensity of your run, bike ride, or walk will help prevent injury and allow you to continue enjoying that spring air!
