Marmot Borealis Mitten - Kids
Whether your little tyke or tigress is Stem Christying down the slopes, sculpting Frosty in the front yard, or lobbing a snowball at a yucky girl or boy, you can rest assured their little hands are warm and dry in the Borealis Mitten. Complete with a waterproof membrane that simply won't let moisture penetrate, the Borealis is more than just a low-tech version of an adult's mitten. It features reinforcements throughout that will withstand rough and tumble play, like padded knuckles, and a thick layer of fleece on the back of the hand where insulation counts the most. In winter, kids and runny noses go together like recess and play. That's why little ones will find a super soft swathe of fabric along the thumb, affectionately called a nose wipe, the handiest thing ever. A safety leash ensures the Borealis Mittens for kids stay right where they should…attached to the kid. Best of all, the Borealis is a great value. Available in gloves [MAR0217].

excellent mitten
Great mitten, my 5.5 year old can pull the drawcords herself. I wish they came smaller, this pair is big and will fit her until she is 8.

Training Tips
One of the most mentally toughening things you can do as a runner who trains daily is to add a morning run into your routine. This means you are doing two runs a day. The morning run is simply more of a mental challenge then anything else.
Have two pairs of running shoes, especially if you live in a wet climate. Consider replacing your shoes no later than 500 miles into the life of the shoes.
Proper hydration for a run includes drinking 30 - 45 minutes before you start and about a cup every 10 - 15 minutes while running.
One of the best ways to win a running race is to win it in your mind first. Visualize yourself running and winning that important race. The more often you do this, you will start to "feel" the race. Your heart will get pumping and your body will feel the effort required to get the job done.
