Running in Minneapolis: what the weather does to your run
Minneapolis is a genuine cold-weather running town. Deep winter brings sub-zero feels-like temperatures where covering exposed skin and blocking wind are safety issues, not comfort ones. Summers, by contrast, get warm and humid, so the wardrobe swing across the year is about as wide as it gets in the US.
Stop guessing. Start running. Get a personalized recommendation tuned to how you run, plus proactive alerts before your best window, right on your phone.
